SirM Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 Hi all, I said the next project would be a "bird" and here is it. Pic 1: I know there is two pics of the box, but I couldn't decide which one looked better so I used both. Pic 2 Pic 3: Construction of the main wings and dry fit into fuselage. Pic 4: Dry fit of wings again off front view. I would appreciate any help from people who have build this model before, with tips or things I might miss. Thanks for peeking.

fulcrum Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 Hi SirM, Darren Roberts is an expert building this particular kit, i have seen some wonderful works by him. That's not my case, i have not built this kit before... Good luck Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Darren Roberts Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 (edited) You can find a quick synopsis of shortcuts in the Gallery page. It's in the F-14 section on the second page most of the way down. It's the build of the VF-124 Tomcat for Thanksgiving (Turkey Day). Also, if you wait a couple months, there will be a full article in FSM on how to build the Monogram kit. I'd post some of the rough draft, but they have already accepted and paid for it, which means they own the rights to it. Let me know if you have any other questions about the build. I love that kit Edited May 13, 2006 by Darren Roberts Quote Link to post Share on other sites

David Walker Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Also, if you wait a couple months, there will be a full article in FSM on how to build the Monogram kit. Hey, great news. That should help a lot if I end up picking up one of these kits. And SirM, I'll look forward to watching your progress on this one. Are you going to build it as the Black Bunny?

Hi David Yes this one will be the Black Bunny one. I have another "Cat" in 1/35 from Revell (kit #4770) that I am not so sure about, any suggestions? I just had a look at the pilots and I am sure some flight jockeys cringe at looking at them so no going to use them might try find different pilots, not easy to get a hold of seems not many people import them here, might just leave them out. :D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SirM Posted May 25, 2006 Author Share Posted May 25, 2006 Just a small update, I have found other pilots and going to use them, just waiting for them to get here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
