WTB: Skyworks GE-F110 nozzles for JSI F-14

Looking for a set if anyone has ones they wouldn’t mind parting with.

Please no opinions on the nozzles, thanks. :P

Re: F-14 Tomcat TF30 Open Nozzles

Looking good! Seats and chin pod for an F-14D would be ideal, probably the biggest thing missing in the 1/18 F-14 world. I know you said you were going to be removing the seats, I'm not sure how those are more complicated, design wise, than the nozzles or a flir pod. Many times in model kits, the se...

Re: JSI Tomcat - Super Detailing???

Perhaps it could have something to do with air/fuel mixtures at higher altitudes as the air is thinner up higher but I have still seen plenty of pics and videos of Tomcats at higher altitudes "plugging in the blowers" and they're still a bright orange/ white. See 3:24, 4:40, 6:10, and 6:15 in this v...

Re: JSI Tomcat - Super Detailing???

Mind sharing those photos you're referencing? If anything, maybe a light purple at night but definitely orange most of the time.

Re: JSI Tomcat - Super Detailing???

That's a really cool concept, it's probably going to look pretty sweet when it's done! A little curious as to why you chose blue, though? Is that going to be the final color or are you painting orange over it?

Re: 1/18 F-18 exaust

The FLIR pod on A10 loader's Tomcat is made by JSI and included on the Black Knights F-14 release. He did add a lot of detail to it but he didn't make it.

Re: JSI Tomcat - Super Detailing???

Yeah, those covers are anywhere from Tan to OD Green to Black, often faded into some sun bleached shade of whatever color it once was.

Re: JSI Tomcat - Super Detailing???

Nice paint work on the nozzles. I have a set of these nozzles as well as the original Skyworks versions, I'm trying to decide which one I like more.

Not necessarily. If anything it was most likely the RIO messing with the maps...

Re: 1/18 pilot helmets?

That's not the right style anyway, those are like the more modern HGU-55 that BBI pilots come with. (but not as good)

Thanks for trying!

1/18 pilot helmets?

Has anyone ever made a 1/18 HGU-33 helmet? I thought I saw that someone made a figure that had that helmet style (VF-84) but I haven't seen anything but the BBI pilots most recently. I need some for a project I'm working on. https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-8fpxAIronMA/UVsK4mivu_I/AAAAAAAAEB0/5Pc-...

Re: WTB: BBI Blue Angels F/A-18

Yikes, that's a bit more than I want to spend... not to mention I don't have room for two hornets. (nor do I want both)

In my defense, I wasn't the one who offered $50 for the BA Hornet... I never got a response to my inquiry. :(

Re: Want to Trade: JSI F-14 LEFT WING PYLONS!

It's going to be a standard F-14B OEF/ OIF load out, I'd just rather have the sparrow pylon.
