Hi,

here is my newest project - F-14A from Hasegawa. I am planning to make it as VF-84 Jolly Rogers. I will use Fightertown decals.








F-14A is a big fighter, below comparing with WWI fighter - Fokker dr.I smile.gif





First problem in my model was canopy...





I sanded it and polished...







Second problem is was Vulcan cover.







I change it with PE part.

WOW! Love the Jolly Rogers! Favorite squadron, when I build mine in the winter I will be using Fightertowns Jolly Rogers decals. Love that PE also! BTW, nice shine on your canopy! Keep the pics coming!
Brian P: Fightertown Decals
Looks great!!

A correction for you - The rear gun vent (NACA) with the triangle opening wasn't used on this jet. You want to use the part that has no vent.

Where did that PE come from? It looks great.

Like Brian I am curious to know who makes that PE part for the cover?

I was wondering how come no one complain of the Vulcan cover problem. Looks very good there!

Do you intend to make that PE as after market? Might be interested in some considering I have a few of this same A models.

I don't know now. When is more people interested on this build, I probably make some sets of PE parts for F-14. Please write to my when F-14 is finished.
JMan
Wow those look really good. Wish my camera took pictures that were an 1/8th that good. All I get is fuzz!

And here I was thinking (upon seeing the thread's title & before I clicked on the link), that this is going to be another boring F-14 build.

Thank goodness I was wrong! Your work is awesome, Wojtek! 70.gif

A boring F-14 build? Is there such a thing when dealing with 'gawa F-14's wink.gif

Wow that PE is sharp and crisp looking! Just brings out the details so well! I would definately be interested in getting some of that for a future Tomcat build thats for sure!
shadowy_one
awesome!
what other PE have you for this build?
i would be a customer - you should do a poll on how many of us would buy your designed PE 70.gif
janman
I like your PE parts, Wojtek! The pitot probe looks great too. If you ever decide to market these, please don't forget us 1/72 modellers!

I agreed!

Depending on prices, I have 4 F-14A. I partial built 2 and its got the same damn Vulcan cover problem, I assumed the other 2 kits will faced same problem. I will still be getting more Hase F-14A because they all said the new Revell Tomcat is just a repooped version of the old ones.

So, I need those. Especially the vulcan covers.

Tomcat27

Joerg
Hi Wojtek,

fantastic work 70.gif . I really like the improvement over the standard kit of your PE sets. Just as everybody else said, you should really consider selling them. Heck, I would probably buy 5 sets each alone.

Cheers,
Joerg
