F-14A VF-84 Jolly Rogers 201
The box looks tired
This is the original kit decal sheet. Looks too yellow to me so instead I'm thinking to use aftermarket decals.
Dream Model and Hasegawa PE for the kit
Excellent CAM decals
Despite some damaged parts the kit looks sweet
Parts ready for reassembly
This is Hasegawa PE that was included in the kit. Fit well to the kit's cockpit tub.
After a long brake the tomcat is progressing nicely. Used Tamiya LP flat black for the base coat
Camo in progress. Model master flat gull gray and tamiya lp flat black
Final assembly in progress. Kit didn't have weapons, only a TARPS pod. I'll buy weapons from Eduard some time in the future

Cool I've got the same kit of the VF-111 just with additional nose art. Watching with interest. Your decal choise is also pretty cool.

Actually, just after receiving this VF-84 sheet, I found anoher sheet for sale with VF-111 markings. Would have liked the Sundowners scheme more but this choice is also good 😄

excellent choice of decoration
yellowed decals are recoverable in the sun
exposed to the sun for a few hours
sometimes it works
good editing

Thanks for the advice, Juskifo. I have kept the original decals so I'll be able to try to recover them later

It's done about 95%. Need to paint antennae and sensors. Weapons to be added later. Thanks everyone for showing interest to this project!
