Pablito Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Hello everyone! I'm presenting my latest finished kit, the 1/72 scale Academy F-14D"Vandy 1" from Air Test and Evaluation Squadron Nine nicknamed "The Vampires". Academy did a brilliant work with this kit, It was a big pleasure to work with this one. I've added resin ejection seats and some small details in the cockpit from the Aires set. The wheels are from Reskit, probes from Master. Decals are from Myk Design, they are accurate but a bit to thick. Here are some pictures 40 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehnz Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 That looks fantastic. Not seen an all black one before, it does show off really well. 👍 Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon020 Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 (edited) Great work. The finish had come up very nicely. A nice splash of colour with the stores too. Superb. So far, I think this kit has impressed me the most when making them... GWH currently, and whilst the end result may (I hope) be worthwhile, the effort is much greater. I've another pair of academy kits to make and am looking forward to opening those boxes Edited November 3, 2021 by Jon020 Added further thoughts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundowner14 Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Awesome model. Are the crews on the starboard side really call ‘Jhon’? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 That turned out great! Must admit, I am unfamiliar with that all-black "camo" scheme. It certainly is strikingly different to the lo-vis grey schemes! Thanks for the education, as well as a fine model! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightningboy2000 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 That looks absolutely fantastic in black! I feel I must do one of these in black to sit alongside my all black Voodoo! Which black paint was used? Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
