  • Sprues with precisely molded plastic parts, ready for cutting and assembly.
  • High-quality decal sheet, dedicated to the "BLACKSNAKES" version, allowing for accurate reproduction of the markings.

Please Note: The kit does NOT include model glue or model paints, which must be purchased separately.

Required Tools and Materials

To properly assemble and paint the model, standard modeling tools and materials are essential:

  • Model paints (acrylic, enamel, or lacquer), chosen according to the painting scheme.

Recommended Paint Colors

The A-10C Thunderbolt II in the "BLACKSNAKES" paint scheme typically requires specific shades of gray, characteristic of modern military aviation. While specific paint codes may vary by manufacturer, general guidelines include:

  • Main Surfaces: Shades of gray such as FS 36118 (Gunship Gray) for the upper surfaces and FS 36375 (Light Ghost Gray) for the lower sections, or similar.
  • Cockpit Interior: Dark gray (e.g., FS 36231 - Dark Gull Gray) or black (FS 37038 - Flat Black).
  • Metallic Components: Metal-replicating colors (aluminum, steel).
  • Tires: Flat black or dark gray.
  • Landing Gear Bays: Flat white (FS 37875 - Flat White) or light gray.

Detailed painting schemes and suggested paint colors from the specific manufacturer are usually found in the kit's instruction manual or can be found on the websites of model paint manufacturers.

  • Additional photo-etched (PE) sets to increase the level of detail, especially in the cockpit and landing gear.
  • Resin wheels, pilot seats, or armament for even greater accuracy.
  • Canopy masking sets.
  • Specialized decal setting solutions (e.g., Mark Setter, Mark Softer).
  • Pigments and weathering products to simulate wear and tear and grime, which will give the model a realistic appearance.

Wielki zawód

A-10c to jeden z moich ulubionych samolotów, niestety model firmy Italeri jest jednym wielkim nieporozumieniem. Spasowanie nie jest najgorsze, trochę szpachli wymagane było przy łączeniu połówek kadłuba. Najgorszą częścią modelu jest instrukcja. jeśli według niej będziemy kleić to dostaniemy hybrydę wersji A i C samolotu. Przykładowo instrukcja pokazuje by przykleić części nr 65c i 66c, których w wersji C nie ma. Kolejną porażką modelu są kalkomanie. Kokpit z wersji A, połowa kalek nie jest pokazana w instrukcji. Niektore kalki nie pasują do modelu, np. 61 jest niemozliwa do umieszczenia po przyklejeniu wszystkich części. Kalki do umieszczenia na uzbrojeniu są pomieszane. Szczerze się zawiodłem, bo mimo początkowego sklejania bez wiekszych problemów, im dalej tym było gorzej, dlatego ocena 2/5
