Gareth WindsorShe a beaut. Lovely finish. Was the engine trolly with the model or scratch build? I want one for my 1:32 F-4E.

Michael HickeyThank You Gentlemen...
@Gareth, the engine came from the HobbyBoss kit, I added extra detail to it and the engine trolley was completely scratch built by looking at a few photos of it. It was a real pleasure to build.

Urban GardiniGood work mate! The screens in the cockpit IP's, is they made with 135mm film negatives?

Gareth WindsorThanks Michael. I figured I might have to scratch build a trolly. You did a really good job.

MarkoHow did I miss this one? C c c.
Excellent looking tomcat. Well done.
What did You use for intake and engine covers?

Michael HickeyThanks Marko, I used clear contact (mainly used for covering kids school books) painted in the appropriate colour and then googled what the covers are meant to look like for VF-84 for the time period, and made the decals using my laptop and printer.

Michael HickeyThanks Soheil and Bryn, I'm pretty fond of this one myself. It was meant to be sold for a client but I couldn't bring myself to sell her.
