F-14 Tomcat

[Kit Basher]

Tamiya 1/48. I build as much for the experience as for the finished product. This one was pure pleasure. In typical Tamiya fashion, everything went together beautifully. Lots of parts, some tiny, but they all fit perfectly. I'm not a real aircraft modeller, so this is not at the level of the folks who are, but I'm really glad to have it on my shelf.

Thanks, Mike! Still one of the baddest looking planes ever, IMO.

Tamiya Tomcat kits are the best fitting of all the other brands. Reviews have been raving about this one for some time now. Expensive but worth every penny of it.

Thanks, Thomas!  I agree, worth every penny. It was cheap, when you consider how many hours of pleasure I got out of it.
