Thanks ray,

The cockpit detail is lacking along with the burner cans. I used one of the seats from a spare parts revell f-15e kit along with the burner cans on this kit. The cockpit instruments are decals. A resin aftermarket tub would be best for this kit.

Very nicely done.  I'll have to put that one on my to do list.  I love the Eagle... My favorite jet.  And I'm falling in love with Tamiya.  

How's the cockpit and burner detail?

Thanks, I agree that the tamiya kit is pretty good.. This was my first tamiya kit. I really enjoyed it. An update would make the kit soo much better.

Nicely done!  I like the Tamiya F-15s.  I wish they'd give them an update.

Had this kit sitting for awhile. I was tasked to build the birds of the Hawaii air national guard. So this is the first one finished. On the list are the 2 f-4C's in sea camo and gray hill schemes, The f-22, P-47, and F-102. the decals are the old superscale decals.
