The next project is one I picked up at last year’s HeritageCon for a very reasonable price. The Italeri 1/48 A-4 E/F/G Skyhawk. This kit is a 2008 boxing of an older Esci mould from 1979. Here is the Scalemates.com entry
As is normal from a kit form this era, there are raised panel lines and very basic details. The cockpit section, for example, has about half a dozen parts. The decals look to be in good shape and consist of 4 different schemes including three US Navy and one Australian Navy.
