This is not a model kit, it was a finished model for
a collector in VF-84 marking, I like the Iranian air force marking in that only the tomcat export country!
I used my printer to print out the Testors clear decal and the Iranian marking, but usually the home’s printer did not have white color I have to paint the white on the model first.

The refueling probe area is made with plastic sheet, the AIM-9B is from their F-104 model, I cut out the outer ploys the lower parts made it difference to U.S. fill the gaps and repainted it all!
But I did not repaint the cockpit, but I did detail up the seats, using the no used P.E. parts the frame cut out the seatbelt shape and copper wire to make the black and yellow ejection circle!
I did not detail the landing gear cause I of had to remove them but the wheel wells
were detailed!
It was a very fresh item and has detailed surface and
a nice cockpit and it permits the modeler to do a conversion for they love the
Tomcat marking.
