René (Lord Bilbo) BartholemyA question from someone who really doesn't know anything about planes younger than WWI...
As the wings are folded, I imagine that the Skyraider is either in storage (below deck) or has just been transported on deck of the carrier.
Would the hardpoints already have their payload? Or would the payload be attached once the plane is "unfolded"?
Very nice job though!

René (Lord Bilbo) Bartholemy@Ryan: my question was actually genuine. Was your presentation choice more an artistic or a historic one?
Both are fine and I really like your work... 🫡

Ryan AuthorI'm not much of a history expert. I built this model based on one I saw in person at the National Museum of World War II Aviation in Colorado Springs. It had all of the weapons still on the wings while they were folded. Can't say if it's accurate, but it's what I saw.
