Pics to follow as soon as i figure out how to host / post them on here, i have recently started the Academy 1:48 f-14 bombcat
Having caught the modelling bug again, and realising i hadnt actually made a model for almost 20 years i had a practice on a jaguar and an a-10 now making my way through this beasty, and my word its a beast. Having been to numerous airshows as a kid with my dad, i doted on this plane and was lucky enough to see them at Mildenhall air fete numerous times, good times
Currently whilst typing this and going over my notes i am rather ashamed to say im also watching top gun.
Im using vallejo paints, as well as humbrol enamels and rather hilariously Games Workshop citadel colors and washes, the nuln oil is a particular favourite.
As with every seasoned model maker im using the instruction sheet " more as a guideline " lol
And as always with my models, im using some poetic license/ wiff to certain areas- mostly pilot/rio and ejector seats
