hugogo Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 (edited) to all Tomcat fans, here is my take on the F-14D in 1:72, it's a great kit of an epic fighter aircraft. Decals came from Hasegawa, cockpit from Aires, avionics bays from Black Dog: That was fun! Now, where is this Hasegawa kit whose decals I robbed, might as well build it in the toned down version!

Billy54 Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Incredible build, I really like it and there is a lot of work that went into it, thank you for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugogo Posted April 11, 2021 Author Share Posted April 11, 2021 WoW! thanks for all the nice comments. As a matter of fact I have started to build the Hasegawa model (whose decals I took for this bird) in the toned down version of the same squadron. It is immediately clear that the molds of Hasegawa have quite worn out over the years, so this will be a quicker build and I will try to make that one much more worn too. So follow up on this in hopefully a few weeks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Navy Bird Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Great job, she looks wonderful. VF-2 was always my favourite Tomcat scheme, especially this later version. 👍 Cheers, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Oh wow! That is just incredible! Your cockpit and avionics details are astounding - not to mention the overall finish, which is totally realistic. Your work is inspiring, yet kind-of intimidating at the same time! Beautifully done.
