Looks great! Did you sand off the decals before you applied the new paint?

Good Golly Miss Molly !!!

I sure hope JSI is taking notes on "what could have been" if they did the F14 right. They prolly woulda doubled sales with a paintjob like that...easy.

I still have to patch up my Special Edition F14 so it don't look rediculous.
