This is something I'm very proud of.
Hand painted "World Peacekeepers" A-10. I was gonna offe a Wild Weasel with it, but the 25th one won't fit without adjusting the belt. Not sure but However a regular (oldschool) WW or Stato Viper or A.V.A.C. will fit. The 25th WW might fit if you remove his belt. I didn't check. Again, as with my Pimp Daddy Destro and Flint sales, I need to pay some bills, so I'm offering it here to the most easonable (highest) bidder befoe sending it to ebay.

The only issue I had with this one is that one of the pieces of landing gear snapped apart when It was dropped before customization. The wheel has since been reattached and is holding well. The plane stands on all three wheels unsupported and the landing gear seats perfectly as it should. Make me an offer via PM.

I also noticed the paint is a bit sloppy on a few of the bombs. I'll clean those up.

Great job! How similar is the paint job in person to the one in the pictures? Do the pictures make justice to it? Is it inferior or superior to the pics? I might be interested. Thanks!

i'm painting my A-10 right now, and it's funny how i'm almost done with it. just need to modify the cockpit to fit Wild Weasel, and some finishing touches. and one final surprise also.
good job btw. so how come you call it "sloppy paint job?" it's fine.

The only point on contention I have is a little bit of bubbling on the right side behind and below the nose. It's not bad-no worse than something Hasbro would produce, but it's not super-perfect. I'd say the pictures do it justice. The clear pics were taken with a stationary camera and the blurry ones are me trying to keep my hands steady.
