An armor guy, who builds airplanes almost exclusively, that he converts to space fighters-- all while admiring ship models.

The one problem I have with the Osean marking (both in print and in the game) is that since the Wardog Squadron is an OADF unit (under whose banner the main characters technically never operated from any carrier), shouldn't the title on the F-14 have been "OADF" instead of "OMDF"?
To the individual soldiers, *everything* is a frontal assault!

i guess so, but the same thing happens in Ace Combat 6.
where Garuda team is part of the Emmerian Air Force, but yet, the Tomcat and the Superbug have "NAVY" tittles on them.
wardog also flew as part of the the OMDF (after they arrived on the carrier OFS Kestrel) before they became the Razgriz  ;D (i got the game to, i played out all the PS1, PS2 and the Xbox360 AC titles)

i got an 1/72 F-14A in the stash, i could make it into a OMDF tomcat  ;D

JASDF F-14 in F-2 camouflage:  :bow:  :wub:



Lotsa missiles!  :o




HERE's the gallery of that build with many more pics.
Cheers,
Moritz

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

That is gorgeous thanks for sharing that Moritz  :thumbsup: I thought it would look good in that scheme, but this exceeds expectations!  :wub:

Done by our Maverick, note the new engine exhausts  :mellow:

Many moons ago on the old, old, old website I did an RAF F-14K in desert pink carrying a recon pod as a Scud-hunter.  I can't seem to find the thread :(  *looks inquiringly in Jeffry's direction*

I tried looking for that (its a great build  :thumbsup:) along with some of the other F-14 Whifs from the old site no luck though. Love the additions guys, can't get enough Soviet style cats and that TurboKat is downright adorable  :wub:
