Cancer Awareness Build (on YouTube)

After a 35 year hiatus, returned to scale model building in November 2013. Mostly military aircraft kits, the F-14, F-16, and Harrier series being my favorite jets, along with the F4U Corsair, and the A6M Zero variants for piston aircraft. Other scale model interests include Star Trek, BSG, and sailing ships. When I returned to modeling, I watched many, many, many modeling video out there getting back up to speed. I started posting videos of my builds as a way to give back to the modeling community. Hope you enjoy the subjects presented and derive some enjoyment and knowledge from them. Thank you.

Cancer Awareness Build (on YouTube)

Post by TonyCnyc »

Recently participated on a Cancer Awareness Build hosted by on YouTube by 'Roadhog0822'.
For this build I choose an old 1985 Hasegawa 1/72 Grumman A-6E Intruder. The kit itself left much to be desired compared to modern kits, but it was for a very good cause.
The colors on the model are representative of three people close to me that have lost their battle with Cancer. The orange represents a cousin who died of leukemia. The white a friend who passed from lung cancer. The grey, a dear young friend lost to brain cancer.
I encourage everyone to have themselves check out regularly especially if you have a family history. Until a cure is found, early detection and treatment is our best weapon against it.
Thank you.
