dkobayashi Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 So I decided to set the corsair back on the shelf for a while, but as of now I'm starting another build- the old mold of the Hasegawa F-14A. It's not a bad kit- although it's got raised panel lines and a basic cockpit. I've built a few of them before though, and it's pretty simple to build so I've decided it'll be my "stress relief" build and I want to get it finished by next weekend or so. Decals are from Almark (Same sheet as the Corsair), and I'm adding the "A" model parts from a new mold Hase "D" cat to spruce the pit up just a little. I scrounged up two instrument panels and two GRU-7 seats from one kit that didn't use them. I haven't really done much, but I hope to get a fair amount done tonight! Expect updates.

C-130CrewChief Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Paint work looks great so far. Any updates? Curt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dkobayashi Posted November 22, 2009 Author Share Posted November 22, 2009 (edited) Hi everyone, after a couple weeks away I'm back! And here's the updates...99% done. Just missing a couple decals, some paint touchups and the fiddly bits. Also, I didn't end up using the Hasegawa seats- these are now the Fujimi seats- the Hasegawa ones were considerably larger and didn't fit.
