Number 20 is done just need to fix a broken pitot tube. Also weathered nice but the flash washes it out.

I do like the blue "Russian" style of camo. Great looking Kitty!

Have you thought about putting some camo on the body wheere you can see the gray when the wings are out? It looks out of place...or is that how it is suppose to look?

Hi Cjg476,

Those grey areas inflate as the wing swings back and forth. They are typically dark gull grey. I believe they create a seal between the wing and fuselage.

Heres some more pics outside of the jets. I wanted to compare the two different blue jets. The lighter blue jet is from the earlier days of Topgun whiched used a lighter blue.

Your Tomcats all look excellent.

If it's a vote to pick favourite I go for number 20

All the best

Sam

Cjg476,

I didn't take it that way. Sorry if my response came off that way. It's all good.

I'll most likely will sell 13 and 20 at some point. I've got 4-5 F-14s I need to let go. I plan on keeping Number 30.

Yeah let me know which ones you guys like best.
