    Tamiya Tomcat VF-31

    in The Great Twins Group Build.

    Posted

    Decided to jump in with a Tamiya F-14D.

    First of all, I forgot how "small" 1/48th is to me now after working on 1/32nd aircraft armor in 1/35th & 1/16th.

    I'll be using the Quinta cockpit set and I have ResKit exhausts and I have ResKit thermal coated GBU-12 weapons on the way.

    I also have some 3D printed landing gear that looks very nice as well.

    I am going for a low viz line bird versus a fancy CAG bird.

    An hour's worth of work to remove the nice kit molded details to prep for the Quinta set. 

    Paint to follow ....... black base coat followed by the cockpit color.

    Just had a big box from Andy's Hobby Headquarters dropped off...... Takom AH-64E and a Takom AH-64D ....... I'll get a chance to crack them open and get that up close & personal look at both kits tomorrow.

    And ............... I have the ICM CH-54A Tarhe on the way from Sprue Brothers

    I was shocked at how big and heavy the box is.

    Nice progress on your Tamiya Phantom. You're in the home stretch and she is looking mighty good.

    Keep 'em comin

    Hi Peter,

    I 'borrowed' a few tips from you for this build. My first experience using MRP paints.... wow do those lay down nicely !!! 

    I can see the light at the end of the tunnel .....still a ways off but it is there !!

    Looking good Scott.

    Also, good luck, there are rather a lot of those 'little decals'! :D

    Hey GusMac,

    Yeah there are a fair number of them to lay down ......at least its not a fully stenciled bird !
