madcat911 Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Been working on this one on and off for a while now. It is the much lauded Tamiya rendition of the venerable F-14A Tomcat. The kit was built with the addition of Fine Mold's plastic seat belts and weighted wheels from DEF Model. Painting was done with Mr Color lacquers and weathered with enamels and oils. Decals from the kit but they were a little thick. With superb engineering, this kit was a joy to put together. Feedback welcome and hope you enjoy the photos!

Harold55 Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Great model! I think I need to consider replacing my 30 year old F14 with this new version. This is my favorite scheme as it was the first model I built when I came back to the hobby. Your version of looks fabulous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
