1/48 Revell F-14 Tomcat

May 19, 2014 · in Aviation · · 12 · 2.4K

Well well well.. I finally did my first jet. I started this jet back in December but I lost interest and put it up for a while. I finally got sick of seeing it lying around so I finished it. I thought it came out decent for my first ever jet. The decals I picked up last summer from squardon on a 5 dollar sale, all of them went on well.

  3. fantastic...i also love the livery

  4. Nice, Billy. Your builds have come a long way since you first began posting. Keep up the good work!

  5. awesome color scheme Billy - keep it up!

  6. Nice Tomcat Billy, a plane that I have wanted to build for a while.
    Well done Billy.

  7. Looks good Billy. What you doing next :)?

    • I think I'm going to try modifying another 69 Camaro into something, not quite sure yet. It's the last model in my stash when I got a bunch last fall because I knew I'd be without a job haha!

  8. There's no way you could spoil the looks of a Tomcat. You did a remarkable job, Billy. It's beautiful !

  9. Great looking F14, Billy, makes me want to watch Top Gun all over again.

  10. Too bad if you ever want to see one fly you now have to go to Iran. The upside of this is if they ever dispose of them on the open market, somebody (with very deep pockets) could conceivably import one and put it on the airshow circuit!
