okay guys, i just ordered another cat today. still haven't sold vf-111, but still like to go ahead and do one that hasn't been done by someone yet? so please cast your vote and help me to decide. i love to hear what you guys want, so i can produce it, or try to produce it. and to add vf-143 as well. i know some of you hate the jsi spotcat, but i plan on turning everyone that rolls through my home into a masterpiece. custom painted missiles, custom painted aircraft, but i don't know what to do next. SO HELP ME OUT!!

i also have these missile layouts if anyone wants to make their own decals for their missiles.
aim54;
sparrows;
sidewinders;
you will have to figure out the scale on your own printer and computer, i'll have to take some photos of my missiles when they are done for a placement guide.

first custom tomcat missile, i used to white decal papre, i wanted to see if how bad the decals would crinkle, they did a little. so i will keep trying. if anyone has some advice i am open ears. like does clear decal paper work better than white, how to prevent crinkles, etc.

Great suggestion. A basic-looking paint scheme would be nice.
