AMK 1/48 F-14D Tomcat


Recommended Posts

After 4 months of work, here is my build of the AMK 1/48 F-14D Tomcat.

I added a few items to the build...

  • Resin wheels.
  • P/E seat belts.
  • Intake covers made from Tamiya tape.
  • A radar assembly from a Hobby Boss Tomcat kit.

The fit tolerances were very tight. All matting/gluing surfaces had to be sanded or the parts would not fit. There are lots of small parts that need careful attention when gluing/attaching. I was surprised how well the Hobby Boss radar set parts fit. Just a little white glue to fill in and it worked great!

The model was airbrushed using MM Acrylics. I also used "Flory models dark-dirt wash" to highlight the panel lines. The decals where from the kit.

Hope you like it!
