                        A recent commission project I wrapped up using Fightertown's excellent decals, with the addition of custom Buno, tail, wing, and side numbers, along with the custom tomcat "The cat is back" logo seen on the inboard sides of the tails and crew names along the canopy.

                        This is a very old mold but it still makes one great looking Tomcat. I have built many of them and Yours just looks awesome! The preshading , paint and decals look fantastic! Great job Sir.

                        Thanks man.  I gotta agree that with as old as the molds are, it still holds one of the most accurate tomcat shapes out there.  Would really like to see Revell do a bit to revamp these molds, but in the meantime, I'll probably still reach for one of these kits over most of the other kits available in 1:48.
