I like what I see so far, including the modified pilot. Can't wait to see how the Helmets come out!

Herve: I think someone on here discovered that the Fujimi F-14D actually is the most accurate model for a F-14Kai... because they probably used it for a studio model to make the anime version. All the inaccurate parts of the Fujimi F-14D (because its an A version with some different parts) are what they modeled on the anime.

haha, cool, did the same with an Italeri 1/72 F-14D

Hello,

Thank you all for the comments. After a (quite long) break, here is some pics of this tomcat :

Lot of time sanding and re-scribing the panel lines :

The fuselage is more or less done, with the adjustment of the beaver tail :

Thanks for reading me.
