This one has been through several moves and its parts are needed for other projects. I based the scheme on the F-22 but with darker colors. Its the Testors 1/32 scale jet and its going to a better place now  :lol: I just thought I would show it off before the end.

I built one of those years ago and I HATED it!  Which says something, since I'd pretty much build any kit.
Man, we should have cloned twenties. Jackson wouldn't have given a poo-poo.

It was very fun to cut it up  ;D I took me forever to build, nothing on it was easy  :banghead:

Yeah, no kidding.  Nothing fit, the shape was bad, the detail was poor, the gear was weak...  You did a bang up job on yours though.  Subtly different camo is pretty cool...

I eventually finished it, but when I had to clear some space.... I grabbed a hammer and unleashed the beast on it.

That the worst part of it!! it takes up way too much room after all that work!! I finally realized I would rather have a more well liked Model/Aircraft there (1/32 Tomcat is actually smaller!)

Thanks for the comments Keith  :thumbsup:
