1/144 Revell F-14D Supertomcat

I started my modeling career with planes, but during the last 8 years I've only build 1/24 cars.  When looking for a quick-fun build I stumbled across this little kit of my favorite plane.  And for only 4.5€, how could I resist.  Altough I can't really compare with other kits, I was suprised at the amount of detail there was in such a small kit.  The entire kit was airbrushed, using some leftover Tamiya acrylic paints.  I even tried some preshading, but not much was left after the 3 camouflage colours.  I added ejection handles and two little pilots made from thin electrical wire and some putty.  Weathering was done using Tamiya weathering sets.

I quite liked the outcome.  Probably the best way I spent 4.5€.
