                            • Just great!!!! Love your nose art! For folks who have not done a full weathering job and repaint, it takes a lot more work than you think!!! So, anyway, fantastic job Bro!!! Jerry

                                • Awesome workmanship dude! The 150hrs of time shows up in the result. Well done my man, it's all about scale.

                                    • Total Professional work. I so understand getting buried in a project like this! Not for every bird in the hanger but the 14 totally rates it!!

                                      • Thabks guy! Yeah...to me..the f14 is one of the best models freewing has ever done. And i love the tomcat (who doesnt) on my first one i just did a quicky repaint. It looked nice but i wanted to really give this one the finish it deserved. Its been atleast 150 hrs for the refinish. Lots of sanding and filling and sanding amd sanding. It took me about 3 hrs just to paint the nose...a couple hours to do the tails...i worked on it all day friday and alot of saturday just to finish the weathering. But most of the work comes with the surface prep and doing mods. But so worth it in the end.
