I've seen several of these A-10s floating around in internet land customized like the famed Rattler. As far as painting goes, there's nothing too special here. I did, however, address a common issue in doing this custom: the cockpit. Anyone who owns one of these knows how Wild Weasel doesn't fit and requires cutting the seat to make him fit. I have created a cockpit that the only tools you need is a screwdriver to open up the plane. All you have to do is just drop in the new pieces and you're good to go! This also has a feature that the original Rattler didn't- a removable ejection seat! As you can see in one of the photos, I've attached one of the parachutes from the Funskool Wild Weasel figures. This A-10 is really a great value and fun and pretty easy to customize. I've got a couple more ideas for modification that I may do in the near future.
