Gallery Article by Jay Cochran

 

Here is my new Hasagawa 1/48 scale Grumann F-14d Tomcat, finished in Eagle Strike decals modified to show the airplane as it appeared when VF-2 took part in the Red Flag exercise over Nellis Airforce Base.

I used the Verlindin resin seats modified from their F-18 Hornet seats, Eduard photoetched detail set, Hasagawa weapons hang on the pylons, paints used are floquil.  I weathered with watercolor paint thinned down and flowed in the panel lines and with chalk pastels.  

Shown with the Tomcat is Verlindins 1/48 scale modern us navy fire truck and crew.
