iv always used IMGUR app to up load my photos then copy image url and I only have my phone to use …

Ok I’m back to the pavehawk after couple years gezzzz haha Crappy part is I can’t get my photos to post 😵‍💫🤦🏽‍♂️ been trying the way I normally do but it won’t let me add photos

😍😍😍 looking real good! Love me a tomcat !

Dang I’m just now seeing this 😮‍💨🥺 sorry to hear this. I sure wish I could have gotten a few tomcat intake sets. I was late to the game. Best of wishes 🙏🏻

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Hey guys! Got a little bit more done. got water effects done on the base. I used Vallejo water texture acrylic paste that dries clear. Tired to make it look like the ocean from 5,000+ ft elevation, sadly this is where it will stay for a while, as I need to get back to work on a few commission builds 😮‍💨 hopefully we will see yall again soon 🤘🏽 thanks for stopping in !

no clue, I just used the kits decals. I’m not up to par with all the technical terms of CAG birds I guess I should do some reading lol

Got weapons all assembled. Will get them primed tomorrow then can start painted 😅😮‍💨 and some slime light action for fun 🤓

Back with another update and it’s a big one ! got the nose cut for master kit probe ( It was nerve wracking) next got exhaust installed , cable hook installed and fuel tanks installed An unmasked canopy ! So happy to see the cockpit again. And change up my base idea 😅 should work much better for displaying this beast. and here she is finally flying ! Now I can do some fine tuning and work on the new base as well as weapons. Moving along nicely! Thanks for stopping in again! 🇺🇸 Matt

haha yes I’ll be doing wings swept for sure haha

Got a bit more work done. Got all the marker lights done. Not my strongest area, but they are done. got one of the master brass probes installed will do the nose probe very last ( so I don’t break it off ) Added a layer of UV Resin over the pod lens that I tinted. It gave it more clarity ( when gluing the factory part in I got glue on the clear part, so it didn’t look well). UV resin fixed that issue. Taking a break from the tomcat and will try and work on the base as I’m nearing the finish line and boy howdy! Where am I going to put this thing! Haha 31” base as I wanted it to accommodate the huge tomcat. im thinking at trying to recreate a pic from desert storm ? and here is the beast on the rough cut wood base… lots of work ahead …. Hopefully next update I’ll have the acrylic rods bent and fuselage roughly mounted for mockup 😅 Have a good week everyone! And happy Veterans Day to all who served our great country 🇺🇸

thanks, here’s what I used

Well while my thread is fresh at the top, I also worked on the sensor pod. I tinted the lens before installing. I know it’s probably not correct but it give it some character

Hey all! Back at it will tiny update I managed to get walk ways done. I didn’t have any ammo by mig anti slip paste so I opted to use my AK Asphalt paste it is textured so I did a. Test and it looked good so I went for it. That’s all for now, thanks for stopping by.
