  Yet another group build complete, and another Tomcat. This was built for the Gulf War I GB. Two Tomcats for me in this GB. Both (natch) are CVW-8 from USS Theodore Roosevelt. The first completed was submitted a month ago, here is the next one. This (again) is a Hasegawa F-14A built OOB except for the decals and the tape seat belts. Again I built this one wheels up. Kind of liking the way these look. Also they make displaying the finished models a little more interesting.

  I used a impossible to find Superscale sheet for the decals. This one representing the VF-41 squadron commanders plane, "Queen of Spades". Matches nicely the VF-84 "Cat SnXXX fever".

  To make it wheels up did not go as well as my VF-84 plane. This one required a lot of plastic strip and putty. Strip would have been required anyway as I really buggered up the port intake. It looks good now, but dang it was in rough shape till I figured out how to fix it.  

  The display stand is a coat hook I picked up at my wife's "hobby store" Paint it red, toss on a sticker and its "good to go".
