US Navy F-14A Tomcat 1/48 Academy / Eagle Strike Decals

The Academy kit with Eagle Strike #EP48279 aftermarket decals. The red of the decals is a bit on the dark side I'm afraid, but does the job. Likewise the kit is okay but not excellent, fitting the nose/cockpit section to the rest of the fuselage was a major headache for instance.  Airbrushed Xtracolor enamels, semi-gloss floor wax.

USAF P-51D "Tuskegee Airmen" 1/72 Academy

Model of a warbird P-51D featured in the motion picture "Tuskegee Airmen". The real Tuskegee planes didn't really look like this, but the actual movie plane did indeed.

US Navy Grumman TBF Avenger 1/72 Academy

Another navy torpedo bomber, Devastator's successor Avenger from Academy kit. I had a spare set of old 80's E.S.C.I. decals for an Avenger, so this is one of those models where you buy the kit for decals and not the usual other way around. This model represents an Avenger two months prior to Midway, 1942, Lt. A.K. Bert Earnest, Torpedo Squadron 8th.

Nice build, good fit, easy paint job, mission accomplished!
