Nah, at least there are variables in F-14 VF-84 markings… from early to late paint schemes, plus different aircraft numbers. But yes, there are other very attractive F-14 schemes out there besides VF-84. I really like VF-1 and VF-111 myself. VF-41 was pretty sharp as well.

I used the Humbrol Midnight Blue with Model Master Blue Angels Yellow on my Hornet build last year

Tom, you are too much... :giggles: https://i.postimg.cc/cHWmFcT1/IMG_0452.jpg Torben, indeed it is a neat job, but it sure has ben an adjustment period as well. It has been quite physical to do much of the work all day long. But I do get to see all kinds of neat stuff and see what is really out ther...

What?! John is working in 1/48? On a Post WWII aircraft?! :wow: :tease: Well, in any case I'm sure that this will be a great looking build to follow along. Man it sure does look to be a beauty of a kit! I wonder if Eduard tackle a Sea Fury in 1/48, since the Tempest II and Sea Fury are rather close ...

The Mustang combo does look nice... as do all the new detail accessories for P-51s. The 1/48 Weekend D-Day Spitfire IX is VERY tempting... but does every Mk.IX have to be in Johnny Johnson's markings?

That MPC Profile Series A-7 kit sure brings back some memories... Version wise they weren't too accurate, but they did have great decal markings options.

John just posted an update on his latest project.

Oh I’m looking forward to seeing what comes next in the cockpit!



Good to see your back on here and at the bench again John!

Bruce! Good to see that you made it back onto here! And excellent to see your Enterprise progress report. Keep ‘em coming!

I've never had epoxy fog anything before. But yes, try an experiment on a spare canopy or other clear part before committing to using it on a project. I've become something of an epoxy fan over the past couple of years in place of CA... especially the quick set type. Each as their place on your work...
