twong Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 When you include them in your set make sure the bottom part is angled to follow the panel line as shown in the photo below. It is shown on an F-14D but they are the same on the late A, B/D. Cross Delta makes them in both 1/48 and 1/32. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Painting and finishing The model's surface, once painted, should show no signs of the construction process (glue, file, or sanding marks; fingerprints; obvious discontinuities between kit plastic and filler materials; etc.).
