Small Scale Military Headquarters

MM Lt Ghost Grey and Dark Ghost Grey do not match. The Lt is close but you can easily see a difference. Anyone else with help matching the colors for the Black Knight F-14 would be appreciated. John Sorry to hear this John. Like I said though you'll probably have to play around with some other gray...

It will be interesting to see her with all the other parts added to her. Looking forward to more.

Steve

I'll get in touch with you via email, thanks. You can see my two Cats on this forum. My one is under the JSI Tomcat-Super Detailing forum. My part starts on the bottom of page four and the rest of it is all me, the other guys disappeared. My other one is under 1/18th F-14A " Black Knights " Tomcat, ...

The colors for the BK jet SHOULD BE FS 36375, Light Ghost Gray for the bottom and, FS 36320, Dark Ghost Gray for the top. I strictly use only Model Master enamels because I believe their colors match the FS colors the best. You should test these colors on some scrap plastic first before putting them...

If your working on a Tomcat, why not share those WIP pics with the rest of us ? I am always curious to see other 1/18th scale Tomcat projects. Steve "TOMCATS FOREVER, BABY...!" Hi A-10LOADER, Will do once I'm further along. Limited time and space with full time work and activities for two 1st grade...

Steve... Not to sound like a dumbbell but I have had no luck in trying to post some pics. If it is not too much trouble could you possibly point me in the right direction..? Is there a process or procedure to do this...? Many thanks in advance. John G... : :oops: Well, first off, do you have a phot...

Well said !!

Ok then, Nathan did a great job finishing them.

Apparently Draw Decals does not do custom work, according to mutt71. I'm surprised to hear this because they redid my national insignias and nose art for my 1/18th scale F-14B conversion.

Steve

Well, I heard back from them. "We are unable to offer any custom decal services, sorry. I am a little disappointed, but, I am optimistic that I will get them done somewhere. "Nothing ventured, nothing gained." A10LOADER, thanks for the lead, in any event. I will try Peddinghouse to see if they may ...

Steve, how hard are these to fit in the cabin? The BBI aircrew will fit inside the cockpit without any modifications but, it's tricky and must be done with care. The aftermarket resin ones fit extremely nice but, they must be painted first and then assembled, inside the cockpit, piece by piece. If ...

Nathans nozzles look really good on her and "OOMPA" did a great job finishing them.

Steve

"OOMPA" did an outstanding job on her. Nathan's nozzles looks great on there as well. I do see the antenna now in these shots. In your Facebook ones, it looked missing. Now get her on that stand and put here in a safe place this time !!

This VF-84 sheet and the Zotz VF-111 "Miss Molly" are the only two out there. $20.00 for the VF-84 sheet is a steal. Brian ( Fightertown Decals) told me he would never do another 1/18th scale sheet because this sheet was his worst selling decal sheet ever. :( The Zotz sheet is very hard to find nowa...

Nice, I'm looking forward to seeing them.

I sent a request for decals for an AH-64 Apache set of decals and a set for an MH-60 Blackhawk as well. I can't wait to hear back from them. Thanks again A-10LOADER, as I had no idea what I was going to do for decals for both of these Birds! No problem, hope this works out for you. They should be a...

Steve.. Thanks for the heads up. Painting is no problem. Have done many figures in many different scales. I too also concluded as well that a assembled JSI F-14 would be practically impossible to install / fit completed and detailed pilots in without some damage. I have another F-14 that I will be ...

So these sites like drawdecal won't work. I need somebody like Jackson did to make nice detail decals for a specific plane. He did for me Marge, the Gabreski P-47, My Tex hill P-40, Blackburn Big hog Corsair and my Douglas Bader Hurricane and Hartmann 109G. Not ones that are generic already done fo...

Still way too high for what you get IMO.

Steve

These are very nice, I had a set a few years back for my Tomcat but, sold them. One thing you need to know before purchasing them is they don't come assembled, they won't fit unless your cockpit is out of the jet. They are resin and must be painted and put together piece by piece so they fit. Not an...

You could try here, www.drawdecal.com. They are located in Minnesota. Hope this helps.

Steve

Thanks for sharing Nathan. Anyway you can make the A-4 shot bigger ?? I saw the Phantom shots on Facebook, she's looking good.

Sorry John, it's sold. It would not fit the Tomcat cockpit anyway.
