Popular Post Rod bettencourt Posted December 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 24, 2021 Hello all, Here is my effort with the Tamiya F-14D. All I can say is that it is a superior kit. I added the Quinta cockpit set and Def model wheel set. I used model master paints. I found that that kit fits so good that I was screwing the build sometimes for using to much glue. Hope you enjoy the pictures. Rod This was just a fun build, I did not want to get bogged down with a lot of AM stuff. Thanks for looking.

opus999 Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Outstanding work! I would've mistaken it for the real thing in those photos. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deano353 Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 That's terrific! From a few angles in your photos I would say it could pass as real. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOUSTON Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 Rod, This has to be MY favorite TOMCAT build. It truly is STUNNING, & GORGEOUS to look at. Drooling over it . And your photographs are Amazing too. Looking at the backdrop one can easily surmise it is the REAL F-14D. KUDOS... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
