Hello everyone.  Here is my 1/72 Hasegawa TA-4KU Skyhawk built in Brazilian navy markings.  The kits is very simple and easy to build.  I just added some antennas, hydraulics and the sidewinders for the Brazilian version.  These aircraft were received from Kuwait, in total 23 A-´4 were acquired to operate from the Brazilian aircraft carrier Minas Gerais (ex-HMS Vengeance) and now on São Paulo (ex- Foch).

The kit was painted with my own mix of automotive paints and finished with weathering using pastels. The decals were FCM.

I hope you like it.
