Masterfully done, I will book mark this for future build!
-
That is a quite a modelling seal of approval!
-
Good job! Nice to see it done, what an epic build.
-
Do Maverick and Goose's as well, there's more than enough room for the same bird.
-
That looks incredible! All that detail, everywhere you look there is something to see. Brilliant work.
-
Jeez.. this is a labour of love! Keep at it.

😁 3, 2, 1... Fight's on!

Some inspirational reading from the author Ehud Yonay in his 1983 article 'Top Guns' http://www.topgunbio.com/top-guns-by-ehud-yonay/

The kit and some AM to bring it up to Topgun standards.

Ready Room: Pre-build briefs go here!
Parabat replied to Raceaddict's topic in TOPGUN 50th Anniversary GB
Here's mine, going to build Maverick's Tomcat using the Tamiya Cat, Fightertown decals and some extras including Furball stiffeners, Quickboost nose pod. -
Excellent pictures, thanks for sharing your experience.
-
What an epic build! What was the finest grit paper you used to polish the canopy?
-
Nice. I am doing the same kit (VF-161 Rock Rivers kit, going to do a VF-103 Sluggers bird). Be sure to dry fit the pilots IP and trim as necessary, as it projects over the top of the plastic part by about 1-2mm.

Pictures to follow, but I am in with Maverick's Tomcat, using Tamiya's F-14A, Fightertown 48077 and some other bits and bobs.
-
😉 Good save!
-
Mmmm, Tomcat goodness! That looks ace, just wondering about that probe above and behind the '10', should that be on the stbd side, inbetween the ejection triangles?
-
That looks really good, much improved.

Proposal: TOPGUN Group Build for the 50th Anniversary

Nicely done, did you have to use much nose weight or did the underwing tanks prove sufficient to keep it on its wheels? Noce to see one in camo, a lovely build.
-
Very impressive, thise BMF finishes always look really good, especially in the larger scales.
-
Have a look at the Quickboost one, it's a little 'crisper' in the detailing. https://www.scalemates.com/kits/1094490-quickboost-qb-48-797-grumman-f-14a-f-14b-tomcat-chin-pod-with-ecm-tcs-equipment

GB concludes in March though, so one could eke one out. -
That does look rather good, really well done.
