I'm so sorry if I haven't updated in a while.

After more than three weeks of preparation and more than four days of assembly including the paint job, I proudly present to you my first real work, the Project Red Ghostriders F-14 Tomcat. Tadaa!

Pardon me for the crappy pictures, I'm not yet into scale model photography.

Notes:
> I chose to put the AIM-7 and AIM-54 missiles because I designed it only for pure air-to-air combat.

> The VF-142 markings of a skull is placed in the canopy, something to remind death to whoever might see it.

> The paint job on its left vertical stabilizer is what I call the "Cross of Death."

> And since it is a classified aircraft like I said in the first post, it retained the disestablished "VF-142" and decommissioned CVN-69 "U.S.S. Eisenhower" markings. It also carries the U.S. Navy insignia in its tail in case someone sees it, there will see no markings of any fighter squadron emblem in action during the time except for the Fighter Squadron 142.

So, I guess that's it. As for my next kit, I'm thinking of having an F-16 or an F-18. Or maybe a Titanic.

Cheers! ;D
