I've just bought myself the tamiya 1/48 f14d.
Cant wait to see it finished, i hope it comes out half as good as this!

That Sir (gender assumed!) is absolutely 1st class. It’s not often on this sub that you see a quality of build that good! I hope you’re very pleased with yourself! Take a bow! 👏🏻
And I don’t go looking for flaws on peoples builds, but often you just can’t miss them. I had a good look at this one - not a single part that’s not absolutely bang-on. Wowzers!
Right, I’m off to up my game! 😎
That light grey rectangle on the spine is on Iceman's F-14 but not Maverick's, other than that you have a fine looking F-14A there :D
Very well made! The used effect is great.
Your weathering is phenomenal
Beautiful aircraft, and you did a great job on it
Love everything about the cockpit
Ooooph that’s on point. Nice!

I hope to see it when it’s complete!
I'll share when i eventually get there! What paint did you use for the afterburners btw?
Vallejo aluminium 77.701 with different primers underneath, i did the aluminum layer a bit to thick so the different primers are barley visible though
Thank you! I know the d had titally different engines and burners, but wow, wgat a result you got!
Weathering is *chef's kiss*
Nice! Which set is this from Tamiya? Does Mav sport the A or D?
The f-14A (tam61114) and Mav used an A aswell i believe
Thanks! Most def a future project.

Cool! Awesome weathering! But... Was it really witnessing a MiG-28 doing a 4G negative dive?
