Just in case you don't make it over to the TSR-2 GB, here's my entry. I've made a small mod to the main gear. ;)  :)

Oh yeah, like the gear wasn't complicated enough to begin with?   :P

How the heck did you manage to end up with all six tires so nicely/firmly planted like that?

I build a WW2 tailsitter stock out of the box and I'm lucky if all 3 wheels touch the ground!   <_<

Looks like a mutant Vigilante to me  ;)    Ducking for cover!  

Nice job on the gear, sounds like this is going to be another winner from Eddies chop shop and used planes lot!

I hoping to find this color tomorrow when I go into the big city of Houston. I always like the way the Bounty Hunters looked back when I was working with them. I took these on the Ranger in '89'.

I was going to try and arm it as a normal CAP load out, but I don't think I'll be able to find any Phoenix missiles. Which is fine, because they weren't always loaded on every Tomcat sortie. ;)  :) I've got a couple of Sparrows and a couple of Sidwinders. Hoping to spy some more in Houston. :)

mmmmmmm Bounty Hunters....my very first Tomcat scheme(Matchbox I think)

That would indeed be a good choice. :cheers:

Good to see that you found a use for those 48th scale F-14 wing pylons.  The cranked appearance sort of compliments the wing and it sure looks like it would be stout enough to carry a Sparrow and a Phoenix at the same time.
