Hi there. While I was wrestling with my phantoms I somehow started and finished this one. It is the Mastercraft 1/72 Tomcat Killer kit. I was crazy about it when buying but to be honest I hated nearly every minute of the build. I changed my mind while building, from the Iraqi Tomcat Killer to a Polish Air Force craft, not to any offence to the Pols, but with the respect to an aircraft downing another, in this spesific insidance a much modern one. Anyways I built it mostly OOB(I just added a spare Esci F-4 nozzle because the turbine vrom the kit was a horror show of its own) and painted with different shades of Mr.Metal Color. To be honest I was cursing all the way of the build but when I think aboput it now, with a few careful touches it may make a nice MF kit. Enough of words...




By the way decals are realy nice.

is this the offending MiG that downed your thunderbolt?

If so, it should really pick on someone its own size!

but seriously - nice work. =)

Yep! It is the buger that bullied the Thundie. Thanks by the way. I have a lot more to learn about metallics.

I does look good.

Thanks gentlemen! I will contiue on my acts of Miggishness of 21 in the near future with hopefully a cat hater:} Hmmm I better remember to build an original one too. A VVS one:}

Looks good to me, but it is always bad when the kit is not a pleasure to build - at least some of the way.

Thanks for sharing

If I have a build I absolutely hate, I put it in the Grandkids Build Box. Give them a tube of glue and a can of spray paint, and they don't really care how bad the kit is.
