Post your Finished Builds Here!


Recommended Posts

Well, here she is all finished!

This was my first time with a Hasegawa Tomcat, I'm pretty happy with the way it went together and I think I learned a lot.

There are quite a few things I could do better but that's how you learn! I just want to thank everyone for your help an support and I'll get to work on the other two Tomcats as soon as I can.

(I'm not to crazy about the quality of the photos so I may replace them if I can take better ons)

This is my ten year old-Chris' 1/72 Hasgawa F-14A that he was given for encouragement. He built it out of box and did 95% of it himself only having help where he was having difficulties. He won 2nd place with it in the juniors category of Expo 2009 in Melbourne being beaten only by his own 1/72 RAAF UH-1B. He hopes you like it.

VF-201 Hunters. Kit is the 1/48 Monogram; rescribed and horizontal stabs removed for repositioning. Nose pitot is a needle. Decals are Repliscale. Intake covers are Steel Beach with a VF-201 decal.

I'll need to do some more tweaking after I move. Somehow the canopy got all messed up inside. The right upper and lower fuselage split near the wing, and the left horizontal stabilizer broke off. tail hook fell off as well. Also need to rework the top of the tails.

Good call friend! I don't know why we don't just have a permanent Tomcat build.
