Kinetic A-6E Intruder

Clifford Keesler Autor
The intakes did not fit well at the bottom, but some sanding and putty cured that. Otherwise it has not been to bad.

Augie
Ooo ok watching am I

Clifford Keesler Autor
Thanks Augie.

Gareth Windsor
Ooooo. I'm in.

Clifford Keesler Autor
Thanks Gareth. The build has gone much better than I had thought it would, after the intake fit problems. I suspect that the problem may have been me. LOL.

Kerry COX
As impressive as always Clifford. 🙂 (Oh, and don't forget the 3 degree lean to the right of the refuelling probe. :-/) hehehe
'Stirring' I am. 🙂

Clifford Keesler Autor
Aye,Aye sir!.

Clifford Keesler Autor
Thank you for the kind words, Kerry.

Kerry COX
Clifford, knowing what you have been through and where your "at" today, I will always admire all you do, as you are a wonderful example of how to overcome adversity mate. 🙂 👍

Clifford Keesler Autor
Thank you mate. It is because of people like you, my other mates and family, and the good Lord that I am where I am today.

Lex Jassies
Having the 1/48 Italeri Prowler in my stash I will follow this build with interest!

Kerry COX
Amen Clifford. 👍 🙂

Clifford Keesler Autor
Thank you Holger. @Murad I have watched flight of the Intruder about five times so far during this build. LOL.

Holger Kranich
Flight of the Intruder is a phucking good movie!

Clifford Keesler Autor
I agree.

Thomas Bischoff
Turns out nice - the markings are from the kit?

Choppa Nutta
turning out nice 🙂

Kerry COX
This is going to be a real crowd pleaser Clifford, with a lot to look at, and oh! and ah! over. 👍
Well done mate. 🙂

Michael Phillips
Wow, looking great Clifford! Those are some sharp markings, nice choice. Can't wait to see it whey you are all done!

Clifford Keesler Autor
Thank you all very much. @Thomas, yes those are the markings that come with the kit. There are markings for 3 different aircraft. They are by Cartograph and are very nice.

Christian Bruer
Although grey over all you choose a really colourful CAG bird 👍

Thank you James.

Roberto Rocat
Great work, bravo.

Clifford Keesler Autor
Thank you Roberto.

Bryce Nicely
Nice work, Clifford. I have to ask though, is there a reason you decided to leave the canopy off until after paint?

Clifford Keesler Autor
I had the forward one on when I painted it, but it was only tack glued, and I took it off so I could weather the cockpit and instrument hood, as I forgot to do it before installing the cockpit. I did not like the way the main canopy fit, so I just masked off the cockpit, and masked off the main canopy and painted it seperaterly. I need to start installing the wind screen and fairing it in with putty before paint. Thank you for the compliment.

Kerry COX
Is 'Kinetic' paying you a fee for each sale of the Intruder mate. ? 👍
Because after seeing what you have done with this kit, I am for sure going to have one in my collection, just like all the others here who have seen you work wonders on it 🙂
Really inspiring work Cliff, and in all honesty, I have looked and looked, and all I see is 'Class A1". 👍
Great attention to all aspects of the build Cliff.🙂
SALUTE. 👍 👍 👍.

Jens
Hi Clifford, the Intruder is a silent wish of mine
your very beautifully made kit, makes my Revell model move back up the stack, just wonderful to look at the pictures and be able to enjoy your model 👍 👍 👍

Michael Hickey
Really well done Mate, you should be very pleased to have this one in your collection.👍👍👍

Marko
Nice one.

Holger Kranich
Great Intruder, Cliffy! Painting, loadout, markings - wonderful work you have done there!🙂

Germen V
nice

Christian Ristits
Cool, i hope to be able to start Mine soon!

Martien Lourens
Its a beauty, Clifford. Nice to see a Intruder with folded wings.

Michael Phillips
Fantastic!!! The folded wings really make the model interesting. Well done indeed!!!

Clifford Keesler Autor
Thank you all very much, It really means a lot to me. I was kind of leary about the model at the start, but as I got into it I really enjoyed it. So yes there will be another Kinetic A-6 in the collection, they have released another one that can be built with the flaps and slats down, that will be my next one. And of course I will have to have the Prowler. Again thank you very much for all of your kind words.

Kerry COX
The 'Prowler' sounds like fun. 🙂 👍

Clifford Keesler Autor
Yes, I think it would be.

Lex Jassies
And now there is that itch to start with my Italeri/Kinetic Prowler kit!

Kerry COX
Cliff, I was looking at all the extras that can go with the 'Prowler', and especially all the 'black box' bays. !! Very nice. (and exey); _/

Michael Hickey
Hey Lex, your not the only one with that itch.😉

Kerry COX
Yeah, there will be a few more extra itches to be scratches before the end of the year. 🙂

Kerry COX
Hello Mike 👍

Michael Hickey
G'day Kerry, how have you been?

Kerry COX
I am well Mike. I hope the same goes for you and your family mate. 👍
It's nice to say G'day again. 🙂
