"ARE YOU READY FOR MONSTER JAM?"

Hey, where else but on ARC can you show off your most insane "What-If" projects? Well, how about an F-14 painted to represent good ol' Digger!

I took Monogram's old 1/48 kit, modified with my own version of a smoke generator setup; the pilot's suit got the green flames; then the whole thing got the "black and green wrecking machine" scheme applied. The only decals used were the pirate skulls. All the rest was hand painted and airbrushed. Not perfect, but I'm happy.

The fight deck helmet is the one I wear to work (I work on Sea King helicopters).

Hope everyone enjoys this one-of-a-kind 'Cat.
