alex_stela Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 (edited) Something new from me - Iranian F-14A in 1/72 scale. Built with Hasegawa SP14 kit, converted to Iranian with HDL decals and some scratch (opened refueling probe door and AIM-9Ps). Eduard`s PE ZOOM set, Rob Taurus` vacu canopy and Master`s pitot tube were used. AIM-7Es are Eduard`s Brassin and AIM-54A are from old Heller kit. Painted with acrylic Lifecolors. It was a hard work, but I hope it was worth it. 😉 Model shows my interpretation of F-14A number 160318/3-6020, TFB 8 IRIAF during Iran-Iraq War in 1986. This aircraft was one of the most successful "Alicat" in this war. It was still in service some years ago!

niki Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 The colours are spot on and there is the exact amount of weathering for my taste. That's how I'd like to finish an Alicat myself. Cheers, Niki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
