Thanks!


aeroeng: Here's one you may appreciate (just pardon the dust from being in storage - couldn't find my dust brush). This one is a Revell kit, btw.

Re: Some Tamiya 1/32 Hand-builts

Where are the propellors?


Very well done, used to dealing with 1:72 so those must be gigantic.

Super cool. Thanks for posting the picture. I remember watching those Phantoms flying in formation heading to Lambert field all the time. They sounded so cool. We had F100's before them and they were really cool. Once one F100 overshot the end of the runway and tore the gear off and my dad took me & my brother out to see it. Another time a F-4 crashed on final approach and my dad took me to see the wreckage (sadly, the pilots didn't survive). It was cool seeing the parachutes when the F100's & F-4's would land. Still see the current F-15's on a regular basis, but they're supposedly moving out with all the guard consolidation. Boeing still let's me see quite a few military aircraft flying in & out of Lambert St. Louis (F-15, F/A 18's, T-45's, don't see Harriers anymore).

Re: Some Tamiya 1/32 Hand-builts

I too remember the drag chutes deploying on the Phantoms landing at Lambert on a Saturday (or was it Sunday) morning. What a beautiful sight!

I live in U City and still hear the F-15s roar overhead from time to time!


One last photo. The nose on this one actually swings to reveal the radar. Maybe I'll do a full shoot on this one some time in the near future. The Black Bunny is my all-time fav F-14 and F-4 livery!

Re: Some Tamiya 1/32 Hand-builts

Nice ones there, TH....Thanks for the show!

Another time a F-4 crashed on final approach and I got to see it also (pilots didn't survive).

Now aeroeng, didn't you mean to say "I had the misfortune of witnessing the crash of an F-4 as it was making its final approach (sadly,the crew did not survive)....Now go back and do it over!..

That is a great job TopHat.
I like the looks of the F-14 Tomcat.
At that scale where do you put these babies.
