Not at all, glad to have this kit off of my bench. As simple as modern jets look, there was nothing simple here, should have been a cake walk.

 

[Edbert]

I hear ya brother, the only cake walks I know of are Tamiya kits, but that is just the assembly part.

 

[Down Time]

Here I a thought; how would this work? Buy a top line kit. maybe a Tamiya F- 14, and a Revell Top Gun F-14; and apple the Revell Decasl to the Tamiya kit.

Should have taken your advice.

Tried to do panel lines, followed the directions on the bottle, paint started stripping off. Last straw. There was no happy here.

Ultimately, I'm not proud of the end result, should have taken a breath, put it back in the box and called it a day.

Fear not Panther, this story is not over.

Just for the record, I saved Maverick and Goose, decals too.
This ain't over.
