The Underdog Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Pastor, I've seen plenty of Tomcats, and this effort is a 10-out-of-10 without a doubt. So much to like it would look like a "Laundry List" to say the least. Superlative skills in modeling and the finished product is proof positive... very well done!

Spruemeister Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 There are soooo many really good Tamiya Tomcat models showing up in the gallery these days that I dread building any of mine and falling short of the quality we have seen here. Fabulous model build! Rick L. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
