Looking good dave. Do you have anything 1/72 do sit next to it? I wanna see the true humongousness of that cat!

Sweet Cat, lloks awesome. What markings and decals did you use. I too have the revell F-14, so how does it build up.

Happy Modeling,
Joe

Hi guys .. Well i actually dont have any 1/72 builds to show it against but i have taken some more pics with some tins of paint in he shot i hope this helps i can safely say tho that it is LARGE .. As for the build Joe well its a bit of a challenge there is plenty of filling and sanding to do also some of the moldings are a bit poor mainly the AIM 9 s (well mine were ) the fins were completely missing so i had to buy some aftermarket ones .. One thing i will say is wrap you canopy in cotton wool !! mine has 2 cracks in the windscreen !! but i have to live with it as there are NO aftermarket canopys available for the Cat in this scale ( i know i was surprised too !! ) the main canopy its self was a little misshaped so i had to very very carefully use hot water to soften it so i could reshape it.. Apart from thos few things the rest of the build is quite good .. I chose wolfpack low vis for my colors this was where the real fun began as low vis wolfpack decals in 1/32 are very hard to find , however i did manage to get some from the US but when they came i noticed that they only had the wolfpack insignia and stars none of the no step warnings ect were on the sheet so i had to buy a separate sheet of sowrdsman low vis decals so i could have them .... in the end i used 3 different decal sheets but i got there in the end ... anyway heres a few more pics ... I got the pitot tubes on .. Nearly there now PS Joe .. go and check up on your canopy
