PJ, all of your 'cats are stunning. I'll be refering back this should I get the nerve to try it. Aside from the early gun fighters (F-86,F-8), the F-14, as well as the A-10, are probably the only nozzles I'd consider building out of personal interest. Thanks for taking us along... Joe

Beautiful Tom Cat. I love it.

What do you guys think about the Academy 1/48 Bomb Cat compare to Revell and Hasagawa ?

Thanks C

I personally have not built the Academy Bobcat but the reviews give it positive marks. It does mention some fit problems but the Revell and Hasegawa have the same issue. The Academy Bobcat has tons of weapons that specially the Hasegawa doesn't have. It sounds like a good choice.

Toshi

Thanks for the positive comments.

Excellent work!  The weathering is great and not over done in my opinion.  A real beauty!

Well done, PJ! I happen to be building an Academy -14A, and have been doing more clamping and putty work than I remember ever doing. I'm still excited to get those Sundowner decals on it, though.

John and Gerhard

Thanks for stopping by. I have a feeling I will be posting more F-14s this year since I have 14 of them ( A,B and Ds) in my stash. Can you tell that I like the Tomcat?
