USAF F-7F Tigercat...Vietnam style!

hello everyone...how've you all been?
I know I don't post much on here, mainly because I just don't get time to do any good "What the!" so I've just been lurrking for a while...and a fine lot of madly inventive stuff you've been coming up with I must say...

Anyway, I was getting a bit down in the doldrums doing all serious type stuff for too many people ...

...so I decided to just stuff all that into the weeds and do something a little on the darker side of life....hope you like it.
It's a really old AMT/ERTL kit that's been kicking around for ages so I scrubbed it down and slapped on some new colours...

happy modelling chaps!

That's just awesomeness in pure, unadulterated form!!!!

Begs for a background of blurry vegetation as this beast flies fast through the jungle hunting for Charlie!!!

That's really hot, Zeke and it's an intorduction hard to top! You've got the perfect combination of aircraft, scheme and conflict with this beauty!!!

Welcome to the asylum!

What kit did you source your wing tip mounted fuel tanks from? They look like they escaped from a Monogram P-61 Black Widow kit. Nice work by the way, that camouflage scheme is sweet!

That is HOT. Put it in the COIN group build and give everyone else a run for their money. Be pretty nice to win a group build with your first model on the forum, wouldn't it?

Damn straight! That's a completely convincing, utterly beautiful build, Zeke.

That's a beautiful paint job and a really good concept: sort of mini-A26.....
