MarkoExcellent work so far. Can't wait what's next. By the way, I love that scheme. Looks amazing.
Are those aftermarket decals or from the box. Definitely must get one of those.

Michael Hickey AuthorThank You all for your pleasant comments, and makes me happy you all like her.
@Marko, the decals are from Fighter Town Decals and should still be available. To finish this project I need to work on the out going F-14D Tomcat who will be flying next to the Hornet, but first I'm going to put the blinkers back on and get stuck into my Worimi scheme Aussie Hornet also in flight.

Michael Hickey AuthorThanks Peter, no I'm not that computer capable. I found the image on the net, went to Officeworks got it blown up to A2 I think, placed the plane in front and cotton balls in the fore ground to help hide the stand and that's how they came out.

Album info
This will be huge, I plan on building both these aircraft in flight flying over the ocean. I already have my piece of rippled glass so because of this I would really like to get this one done in a descent amount of time, not the usual year or so it usually takes me to get something done because I get side tracked.
