Very nice.

Like the HB Tomcats, not as detailed as Hasegawa's but goes together very well and allows you to concentrate on the paint job.

Great looking Tomcat, I need to find a stand like that for mine haha. Like the paint job, is the HB kit a good kit to build? I have the 48th scale D model so I was wondering.

it's a very good kit! It goes together really well some fill and sanding was needed where the cockpit section joins to the rest of the aircraft and where the afterburners are.  Also in the 1/72 scale the front landing gear hatches are molded open in place so I had to perform some surgery to close them.
