Spanjaard, Holger, etc, thanks. This kit is more like sculpting than model building.😉

Spanjaard, it's not a bad kit, but it needs some work that is atypical with modern kits. And, I would classify this as a modern kit (2005?).

I'm in. I have 4 of those critters, and I plan on doing one in VF-143 markings also as well as an F-14A. It is looking good so far, great job as always sir.

Derek are those resin intakes? and if so where did you find them?

Clifford, those are seamless resin intakes. They are .are by a company called Rhino. I found them on ebay.
It's a trade off to use them. The external detail is better on the kit parts, but getting the interior seam fixed is always a problem.

That is fantastic! I love in-flight builds. Your subtle weathering is perfect. Well done!

Some of your pics look like the real thing photographed in flight. Nicely Done!

I agree with Jay, those new pics look like the real thing. Sublime weathering, especially on the underside . The weathering on the centerline tank is amazing!

Thanks everyone. I'm pretty happy with this one, especially given the mediocre quality of the kit.
It's funny how many people comment on the centerline tank weathering. Its just amazing what other modelers notice.

That is 1/4" clear acrylic rod I purchased on Amazon. Pretty cheap. Simply drill a hole and use some clear 30 minute epoxy.
