GreyGhost Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Another Fantastic Build, Stanton ... You're going to have a Big collection of BIG 'Cats ! Gregg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
galileo1 Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Really nice work...And I love 'cats without ordnance! That scheme is among my top 2 for F-14s (wish I could find it in 1/48). The other one is from VF-31 Tomcatters. Rob Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HS-4Grandson Posted April 29, 2011 Author Share Posted April 29, 2011 Thanks Guys for the comments....I have the Trumpy "A" version in the storage unit with the CAM Decals VF-41 that will have both dual winder rails and 4 sparrows in the tunnel, but I need to finish my ATARS bird. Both birds will be at the NOVA show tomorrow if any of you guys live in the Washington DC area. Thanks Stanton Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zactoman Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 The model looks really nice Stanton but if I can offer a critique it would be better photos. I'm not a very good photographer myself so I can't offer suggestions on how to improve the actual picture taking but I would suggest a different, less distracting background. Whether it be a large colored paper background, a bed sheet, towel or even a clean section of neutral floor or concrete, I think it would make the model stand out more. Other than that it looks great! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HS-4Grandson Posted April 30, 2011 Author Share Posted April 30, 2011 (edited) Here is some photos of VF-101 and VF-31 together on a piece of marble. Thanks for looking Stanton Edited April 30, 2011 by HS-4Grandson Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HS-4Grandson Posted April 30, 2011 Author Share Posted April 30, 2011 Zactoman, I am kinda limited to what I can do right now my wife and I are living with my folks while we wait on our contract on a house to move...so I can't really set up a photo area. Hopefully this house we are waiting for the owners to agree on a settlement day due too the ex-wife of the house is getting married in June so we dont know if they want too settle May or June.

Jose Maria Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Hi Stanton, Marvelous Tomcats you made dude, absolutely stunning, both of them. Congrats!!! Did you find some trouble or major dificulties during the builds or everything went alright in these Trumpeter Tomcats? By the way, could you help me with some doubts I have about this model? If yes, please, take a look on my recent thread posted a few minutes ago: http://s362974870.onlinehome.us/forums/air/index.php?showtopic=245265 Congratulations dude, very nice Tomcat collection you have. Cheers. JM. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
