VFA-103guy Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 (edited) Here's one of my latest and greatest. Tamiya 1/32 F-14B, with Avionix pit, Quickboost seats, Zotz VF-103 F-14B Decals (with custom decals option for Vic 110), WP drop tanks, G-Factor landing gear, Eduard pre-painted GRU-7 seat stencils, Waldron Models canopy locks, Some Japanese company's (whose name I can't recall) pitot tube, Aires GE engines and SB T-stiffeners. The project is a custom job for one of the aircrew assigned to 110. Enjoy.. Edited June 15, 2015 by VFA-103guy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A-10 LOADER Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Looks good so far. Nice to see you back at the bench and thanks for sharing. Looking forward to seeing the rest. These photos will come in very handy for weathering my 1/18th Cat. Steve Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Joel_W Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Really love the most realistic weathering effects. Looking forward to seeing a whole lot more. Joel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aigore Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Looks great! Really like the grime streaks :D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
taggor Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 (edited) It's not nice to tease! Haha. I would very much like to see more! As many others have said..... the weathering from the shots you have posted looks great. It looks to me like you chose a "low viz" scheme. A nice break from all the CAG marked birds (including the F/A-18 I am doing....yeah, CAG markings). A true "working mans" bird. Looking forward to more! -Mark Edited June 16, 2015 by taggor Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've been back at the bench for a while..between my part time gig, beer, and loose women, I'm shocked I still have time to build things..lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EagleAviation Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Wonderful weathering! A real Tomcat would look just like that Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VFA-103guy Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 Thanks guys! Small update..drop tanks on and AIM-9L added. A quick note about the Zotz decals..The skull and bones and AA tail codes are printed in DK Ghost grey and should have been in Lt Ghost grey. I have no idea why Zotz did that considering all the information that was given to them by myself and Mike Zwierko. I also think more line jet options should have been included. I had to have custom decals made for Victory 110, so thanks to Brian P at Fightertown for that. I hope to get the landing gear at least painted this weekend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
