Whiskey Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 This is awesome! Love how it very simply catches the elegance of the Tomcat in flight. What did you make the stand with? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Slartibartfast Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Fantastic model. The stand is pretty darned spiffy, too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ichitoe Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 That is friggin' AWESOME! Great looking build! How is the metal attached to the model? Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
southwestforests Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Would it be a bit too hyperbolic to say that stand is a bit of artistic genius? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
coneheadff Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Aaaaaaaaawesome!!!!! How did you attach the aircraft to the stand? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cool Hand Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Great model and brilliant display stand. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fighting Eighty-Four Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 First, your model is fantastic, the weathering is very nicely done... But that stand.... WOW! That is probably the coolest in-flight stand I have ever seen. If I had the skills to work metal like that I would definitely do something like that. I like how you turned the red diagonal stripe from the Black Aces logo into the stand itself. Brilliant!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CaptainObvious Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 I'll echo the rest. Fantastic model and brilliant display. One of the best executions I've seen. -co Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hooker169 Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Very impressive! The model is pretty much perfect but that stand takes it next level! Is that stand powder coated? The finish is flawless, well done! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gambler Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Superb work on the Tomcat!......and I think you may have started a new design in stands, that is the best inflight display I have seen. Well done all round! Cheer's, Jeff. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
