Squizzy 78 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Looking absolutely amazing! It makes me wish even more that there was a new release tamiya f-14. Great work and loving the attention to details on your tomcat. A-10LOADER 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-10LOADER Posted August 12, 2017 Author Share Posted August 12, 2017 Steve Simply stellar work - beautifully done Keep 'em coming Peter Thanks very much Peter, I appreciate that. Looking absolutely amazing! It makes me wish even more that there was a new release tamiya f-14. Great work and loving the attention to details on your tomcat. Thanks Squizzy for the kind words, much appreciated. I really wish that this Tomcat would have been released in kit form like the 1/18th scale Dauntless was. Then I could have really super detailed her up by adding lights to the cockpit, exterior lights and, the burners. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A-10LOADER Posted August 27, 2017 Author Share Posted August 27, 2017 Greetings everyone, Wet sanding continues and, progress is being made slow but sure. Most of the top is completed just need to get the sides and the bottom. You don't realize just how big this jet is until you start wet sanding every square inch of her. Hopefully my next update I'll have something to show. Thanks for checking in. Steve ClumsyDude 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-10LOADER Posted August 27, 2017 Author Share Posted August 27, 2017 I managed to get quite a lot done on the Big Cat today. I took advantage of the beautiful weather we've been having here in Pennsylvania and, worked outside today. Plus, the light was very helpful. I felt guilty knowing what the poor people of Texas are going thru right now. She's about 80% sanded now but, I'm STILL not sure about some spots on her. They may require some more attention before the colors start flying. Thanks to all who are staying interested in the project.
