Here are a pair of Monogram 48th scale beauties. Always liked these kits, cheap, easy to build, and look rather good when finished ! The F-14 is OOB, while the F-18 has dropped flaps and slats, as well as the extended undercarriage. They were both
painted at work ( thanks boss ! ) using my Aztec and Xtracolor paints. The tiger
marking were hand painted, using photos of German Tornados and Belgian F-16s.
Many thanks
to Patrick Heeren for the photos, as well as mark and Wayne for supplying the
extra tanks !
