Here’s another one that I got finished up for my Bicentennial collection. It’s the Roden kit with Superscale decals. The stripes on the wings had to be painted. The hardest part was making sure the gear doors got the correct striping as well. I temporarily attached them to make sure everything lined up. I threw in a set of Quickboost seats. I also had to resort to SAC metal landing gear after the kit front gear snapped off. I’m not quite sure the sit of the model is correct. In the last picture you can see that the nose looks a bit low. The landing gear was put on per the kit instructions, but I almost cut some off of the mains. However, in looking at pictures online, there were some that seemed to show it sitting tail high. So, I left it as is and decided not to worry about it. 
The pressure on the front oleo leg bleeds down and the nose gets lower. Look at an A-4 Skyhawk that has sat for a awhile and look at an active duty A-4. The paint scheme is great and I like doing that kind of paint job. Yours is superb. How was the kit to build? Did it fit well? I hope they produce an A model. So far the only 1/48th A model is the old Monogram kit from the 1960s.
