You could swap out the grey background with a photographic one and I bet no-one would be able to tell it wasn't a real aircraft. Great job.

I mean, I shouldn't be, I know they are big, heavy missiles,Β but I'd never really had a visual clue until I saw the perspective in your first photo. Β I believe that the Tomcat could carry 6 of them, but couldn't land with 6 because it would be over the weight limit, so they never carried more than four because it beat dropping a couple of expensive, unused missiles in the ocean each mission. Not sure if that's actually true or just 80s style urban legend. Β On 2/4/2021 at 6:29 AM, Red Dog said: Yep, Amazing model. Well built and the finish is flawless.
