jonwinn Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Finished last month. 1/72 Hasegawa F-14A Tomcat. This was an old mold with the swing wings and not as detailed as the newer molds. It came out OK except for the crappy fit of the canopy. VF-1 Wolfpack early 90s. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

diggle Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 ACADEMY 1/800 Scale USS Kitty Hawk with CVW11 circa 1970 during the last years of Vietnam War in Gulf of Tonkin. It was a great exercise in micro modelling and micro-decalling……especially the “NH” tail codes. I’m now having a rest for a while to let my eyes recover. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Geoff M Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 My latest completion. Z-M F-4E early with Zotz decals and Mr. Color lacquer paints. Kit was built out of the box, but I did add bombs and the jamming pod from Eduard. Didn't need any putty. Joy to build. Thanks for looking. I have another Z-M Phantom on the bench right now. A F-4S along with a Hasegawa F-4S. One will be a Marine and the other a Navy bird. Geoff M Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AD-4N Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Geoff, how are the decals on the ZM F-4E. You did a fantastic job. Never seen a tan nosed -4E! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Geoff M Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I only used the kit decals for the missiles and stencils. They worked ok. I used Zots decals for the main markings. The kit decals seem to be high quality, thin and high resolution. You can read "no step" on the stencils. Thanks for the kind words. Geoff M Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Geoff M Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 (edited) 2 More Phantoms. 1. Z-M F-4S done as VMFA-312 in a TPS scheme. Furball Decals, kit built OOB. I did use a left over Quinta seat harness set on the ejection seats. 2 Hasegawa F-4s done as VF-161 in all Gull Gray. This one had some help. I used a Quinta set for the cockpit, Steel Beach Intake Covers and Cobra Company Burner Cans. Furball Decals and missiles left over from previous Z-M F-4s. Thanks for looking Geoff M Edited December 13, 2022 by Geoff M Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Geoff M Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 (edited) The hasegawa kits do not lend themselves to open cockpits with a lot of strength so I usually pose them closed. One of the little tabs at the back of the rear canopy had already broken off. On the other hand, I had a quinta set to use. And the canopies are clear enough to see through. That's it. The Z-M cockpit looked pretty good on its own so I just added some left over Quinta harnesses. Geoff M Edited December 14, 2022 by Geoff M Quote Link to post Share on other sites
