wh1skea Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 So I've got a Revellogram F-14D, acquired a set of F-14B OEF decals from the "'Merican travelling goodies box", and traded the kit's F-14D chinpod with a fellow ARCer for the Hasegawa F-14B chinpod. Throw in a pair of GBU-12s from the Tamiya F-16C blk 25 sitting in my closet. Just need to acquire a LANTIRN pod (probably go with the Steel Beach set). Some pics to start with: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

wh1skea Posted April 6, 2011 Author Share Posted April 6, 2011 Nice looking decals! I will be following the progress on this one! Many thanks for throwing those into the box, warthog. And thanks to f12aaa for the F-14B chinpod. Ordered the Steel Beach LANTIRN upgrade set from Sprue Bros. today, so hopefully later this week/early next week I can get to crackin on the cockpit. May start painting the Tomcat this weekend.....see if I can't make it hold together with blu-tac. I'm excited about this build! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wh1skea Posted April 14, 2011 Author Share Posted April 14, 2011 OK, now that Photobucket has decided to quit being gay, I can update my progress. Got the Steel Beach LANTIRN set. Worked the rear IP so that I could add the PTID screen. And then painted the cockpit and added the instrument panels. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wh1skea Posted April 15, 2011 Author Share Posted April 15, 2011 Update: Used the kit seats. Since they didn't have the overhead handles, I decided to make some with some wire and did the between the leg handles while I was at it. Then, while I was waiting for the glue to dry on those, I sprayed the intakes and MLG bays with some white. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
