mathy Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Hi all, one of the best kits I ever built is the Tamiya F-14 Tomcat. Built the D-version with some changes for a F-14B. This nice VF-103 F-14B with BuNo 163224 I took at Ramstein AB in 1996 while a NATO Recce-Meet. Add the Eduard PE`s, Brassin wheels and Master pitot. 59 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAT69 Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 The weathering is some of the best I've ever seen regarding replicating the look of a Tomcat after a sea tour. Beautifully built. The more I see of finished Tamiya Tomcats, the more I want to buy and build one ... or two ... or ...😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fewr9fkr9595 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 @mathy that is a gorgeous build and photos mate. Spot on. Just one thing - the number on the starboard tail reads as 10. Should be 01. The decal must have got flipped? Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
