Adam Carter AuteurI know, I was shocked too! I did double check the price so I could do no more really! Enjoying the build already too

Es-haq KhosraviI have this kit and I think the price Adam has paid is fair... The kit is not that good.

Adam Carter AuteurI so love the box! The kit seems ok and the office is great fun to build.

Holger KranichNice and clean wor on the pit, even when its a bit black, though!

Adam Carter AuteurHeico: Cat we had? How interesting!
Gary: No idea as this is my first but the kit itself seems to be fine when compared with other jets ive done (see my albums)
Holger: My greatest critic, your comments keep me working harder! Can you recomend a black that is a bit less black if you know what i mean? I'm currently using Humbrol 33 acrylic spray.
As always chaps, thanks for the comments.

Heico van der HeideYes, we.. My wife and i 😛 It looked allmost exactly like this one. She was very sweet too. But anyhow, hope to see some progress soon on your model.

Holger KranichAdam, i dont want to criticize, i just share my thoughts... What about priming the pit in neutral grey and paint the distinguish areas in black... Just suck a pic from the net and have a look! But however, fun is the most important thing!!! And when you like it, black is the perfect colour for the pit!;)

Adam Carter AuteurHa ha Holger, only pulling your leg (joking) mate! The build progresses and I have to say its a dream to build

Adam Carter AuteurAny thoughts on whether I should glue the wings in one position for stability?

Es-haq KhosraviIf you don't want to open the nose cone, so you can place the radar on a carriage next to your tomcat!

Adam Carter AuteurGood idea! Purely to make it stable and well fitted, I love the moving wings!

Adam Carter AuteurHave spent the whole day in the shed spraying all the little bits now the main body is done. This is gonna be my final build for 2013, and it's also my 30th model this year! Now to decal the body before sticking all the little bits on. I wonder what Santa will bring me? I asked for some Hasegawa kits but guaranteed I get socks again.

Adam Carter AuteurFinally finished, let me know what you think guys and girls!

Martyn FoxNice job Adam. Your cat looks full of mischief. I've got one that keeps commandeering my modelling chair🙂

Album info
Picked this up today for a steal, ?10 for a 1/48 Tomcat! Obviously this is the first jet I ever dreamed about after watching TopGun as a kid and ever since I started modelling I've always wanted to build a big version of it. Gonna be OOB and may try and pick up a TopGun them decal sheet somewhere too! Or not.
