Album info
My first addition to this project was the Revell F-14A kit 04021. While I sourced the Dragon Memorial Flight kit, I elected not to build the Tomcat from there because I felt that the details and decals of the Revell version was far superior. I hope my build does it justice. The decals of this kit lay down incredibly smooth. Very little pressure and sweat equity was necessary to get them to sit and wrap on the fine surfaces. The only part I had problem with was the tail hook and eventually I elected to just paint it. I did do some work on the air intakes of the kit though. I common effort for me. I ground the inner surfaces down quite a bit to get their thickness to be better. All in all, I'm pleased. Hope you agree.
