Hasegawa 1/48 F-14D


Recommended Posts

In the home stretch now! This is Hasegawa's 1/48 F-14D with an Aires cockpit and TwoBobs decals, supplemented by decals from a couple of Fightertown sheets. Several decals left to apply, pilot figure is still headless, and flat coat remains to apply.

Anybody want to guess what will be different about this particular model?

Well, when your RIO unexpectedly punches out high over Nevada, leaving you flying the Tomcat in "ragtop" mode, you wanna slow down: wings out, speed brakes out, motors back to idle... I took some artistic license with the boards; they aren't out in the photos, but I figure he must have used them at some point!

This months theme for our model club was "On A Stick". If it had not been for that time pressure, I never would have gotten this done. Just a couple of things remain: canopy breakers, GPS dome, formation lights under the wings, a detail wash on the exhaust nozzles...
