My father was the chief safety inspector for this aircraft before he retired. This jet has a lot of history within my family. Great build as always.
DarkSouljah where did you live when your father worked about the jet
sungtae Choi He worked for Grumman, which was located in Bethpage(Long Island) New York.
Awesome, I was on the USS Constellation when VF-2 made their last deployment with the F-14, very sad day when the Tomcat was finally retired

Wow that's one of the best fitting kits I've seen, boy has our hobby come such along way.
Beautiful job....such great care in the build, painting and weathering. I always look forward to seeing your notification as I know I am in for a treat!! Thank you.
Very NICE, "Thanks" for sharing this with us. Just got my kit in the mail and looking forward to building it.
Finally, I could not wait to see it! Thanks for sharing Dusan.
The plane says, “I’m going to use your shower.”

Awesome build! I laughed when you bought extra kit just for decals!! Been there, done that!!! LOL! Great looking Top Gun F-14!
Amazing job Dušan 👏
Amazing as always.
The tomcat is a work of art good job
You should get the decals in low vis for VF-143 when they were deployed on the USS Dwight D Eisenhower CVN-69 in the late 80’s. I was on the Marine Detachment aboard the IKE from 1987-1989. I have lots of pictures of these guy! SEMPER FI Sgt. 0311 infantry 1986-1994. Awesome work as always!
I served aboard the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower CVN-69 on the Marine Detachment from May 1987-1989 before returning to the Marine Corps Infantry. VF-143 “THE WORLD FAMOUS PUKIN DOGS” were onboard when we went to the Med from February-August 1988. AWESOME 😎 BUILD!!!!!
Perfekt, sehr sauber gebaut in diesem kleinen Maßstab, Respekt👍😊
Nicely done Dusan!!
That's a beautiful plane you build there.
I'm a 13 year old modeler from the Netherlands and I atmire your nice work. Go on with modeling you are really good at it. Good luck and a healthy 2020
I am 14 and i live i Greece i thought i was the only Teenager who make plane models

Good to see a lot of youngsters here building. BTW I'm a older builder from the Netherlands.
Fantastic work!
Appreciate the tip on modifying the wings for better installation.
Awesome build, thanks for sharing..
Very cool, Maestro! Bravo! And Happy New Year!)
Hi Dusan, your work is one of the best on youtube chanel. Every your video is inspiration for me. THX a lot and never stop pls:)
Ready to go in to the 'Danger Zone' Awesome model, and great work ;-)
Your work is beautiful! F-14 is one my favorite jet fighters, i make scale model aircrafts too, it' s my new passion since last year, keep up the good work, you're awesome! I hope i will make F-14 soon!🤘
Great job on great kit!
Wow my man...that is a beautiful job.
"Tower, this is Ghost Rider requesting a flyby."
"Negative, Ghost Rider, the pattern is full."
Excellent job!
Must get that kit!
Curently trying to cope with the old tool one...I give up, will be a paint mule...
I need this badly. Nice built
Awesome job, wish I was as good as you are with the painting skills.
Great job on the model. This Academy kit looks like a good, quality kit.
It doesn't look like, it is a top quality f-14. Probably the best f-14 in 1/72 atm that you can find...
Odlično izgleda.
Faaaaantastic job Pal !!!
Good model turned out
Got it in one mate! Awesome work! ☺️👍
Very realistic build. Congratulations.
Nice model !!!!!!! Congratulations
Espectacular, feliz año nuevo
The most beautiful aircraft ever built ⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯
That's really cool👍👍👍 Thanks! I have one in 1/48 scale.
Seems like Academy is the way to go nowadays with most of the 1/72 lineup. I have had the most mixed experiences with Hasegawa and Tamiya in recent years, so I’m excited to get my hands on some Academy kits like this one!
You should give Great Wall Hobby a try. Their kits are insane when it comes to fit and details. They have issiues with instructions, but it's a new company and a small one that keeps impressing!
i wished it had come with pilots ! great looking tomcat, very awesome !!!
Thanks for some inspiration to help me get through the first week back after the holidays! Now to decide between the FineMolds or Academy kits - or just buy the big 1/48 Tamiya...
nice job, thx for sharing
Hi Dusan, not certain if I have watched thus before, but if not, you have done a excellent job on a great aircraft, that should still be flying the skies, hope you are keeping safe and well, hope you gave a grezt 2021, best regards from Australia.
I've just purchased this kit!
Nice build. I'm currently building this same kit, although reboxed by Doyusha. For some reason, they popped runners in different colors of plastic: gray, white, and black. I haven't attached the wings yet. I put those pivot cards into place, and I figured I'd slide the wings onto them after I've painted them.
Nice start in 2020!
a very good job! Yuo like F-14 Tomact
Very nice build very nice I deed you inspire me with every build
Gran trabajo feliz año 2020 desde Chile 🤘🤘
Bring this guy to 100k followers
Superb skills as usual my friend...love the gopro like view on your airbrush btw 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙❤
Well done wish my models would turn out like that 👍
Very beautiful...
1:55 - Good job!!
Love it!
Great done! Superb result! Happy New Year 2020 for You and all Your family/friends/viewers/subscribers/and so on! ;)
Dusan.
I do not build aircraft but always enjoy watching you work.
Very well done....Now build some Armour ;-)
Steve.
Класс 🙌 красиво работаешь!
Brah, awesome job, I was building the USNF-14 kit from Academy my self and I was checking out the colors I could make it in, this one comes in like white fuselage not to crazy about it but my next will be in that dark greenish color.
Best to you, great build.
Thanks for your kind words! All the best! Dusan.
Awesome.
Beautiful work. Although I prefer the larger scales. A very enjoyable video
I have the GWH F14A (in my stash) , looks also a nice kit to build
amazing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
welcome to the danger zone.... Sehr sehr gut gemacht 💪
Klasse 👍
Оу! Новенький видосик от СкалеМоделАиркрафт! ))
VF-143 the Pukin' Dogs were on my ship in 1980. The USS Eisenhower CVN69. Part of Carrier Airwing 7.
I see Tomcat.... I like 😁
Quality!
Very nice video, quite detailed, one of the best ive seen in youtube thanks! This made me decide to get the same academy kit. Btw, on the swing wing, where you cut part of it (time stamp 8:32), doesnt the wing just fall off coz nothing is holding it anymore? What was the problem with the stock wing btw? Thanks again!
Exquisito trabajo
Eduard have released etch for this kit now. Please build another one with all the etch 👍😀
I really don't know why should anybody want to change a real molded or resin cockpit with raised details to a one dimensional flat PE crap. Especially with color mismatches like all Eduard colored PEs. (The other thing I don't understand the bumped up gamma and contrast on the still images. Made the whole thing disgusting. Meanwhile in the video it looks very good. LowVis tomcats tipically filthy as hell, but not in the way like in the still images. The overtuned contrast kills it.)
BTW the kit is a clear leap in quality compared to their previous Tomcat iteration.
@@egyeneskifli7808 You know , this is up to you, if you like PE parts , but keep in mind that PE parts are WAY more realistic. And the PE parts on this F-14 , the color is accurate..... The cockpit nobs , if they were realistic , you would not be able to see them in 1/72 scale. 1/32 with problem , if anyone wants realism , PE is the way to go. And this is the first time i hear that Eduard got innaccurate colors for the PE , i think you should check again your photo references. And if you care about realism , use PE parts , realistic 1/72 nobs won't be visible in the cockpit... And nearly every good modeler with some bigger budget , buys eduard PE parts especially for Aircraft cockpits when they care about realism. Your opinion is respected of course but its wrong...
@@KJ-kn8pg A flat piece of metal will never be realistic in a cockpit, not even in 1/72. Especially won't be realistic if it includes the throttle stick too. A tipical switch or nob is some 15-20 mm high in reality. It is 0.21-0.27 mm in 1/72. Absolutley visible hight.
All of the Eduard colored PE instrument panels I've seen have wrong colors. They always fuck up the interior green for example. And the dark gull grey is different in all of their PE sheets. Not only inaccurate, but inconsistent too. In their TA-7 Zoom set they managed to match only one color: black. Anything else is totally wrong. And the other problem with their colored PE: that crappy, gritty surface. Almost like a plow field. Very unimpressive.
The competitive modeling scene is full of bullshit. Start with overemphasized panel lines, overexcessive weathering, etc. Realism isn't the trend in modeling for a long time. In the last 20-25 years realism became an oddity in this hobby, at least if you want to be compete.
I don't care what everybody buy. We have a proverb in Hungary: Eat shit, billions of flies can't be wrong! What buy most of the people almost never correlate with quality, especially not with best quality.
@@egyeneskifli7808 As i recall , The PE parts for the F-14 in 1/32 and 1/72 is not flat first of all. You critize it while never used it , please i used these PE parts and i assure you that they are not "flat" as you say. Second of all, the colors are right surely in the PE in the F-14 from tamiya in 1/32 and the academy 1/72 , again please critize them when you actually see them in person and use them. Third of all , yes this whole PE parts being not accurate is total BS because it is infact more realistic than molded plastic(not resin). Ah and yes , i am sure you watched some scale model related videos and in nearly everyone they use PE parts .... i wonder why. You are in fact the first person that argues about PE parts being less realistic than PLASTIC molds (you gave me a good laugh ngl) and says that the colors are innacurate. Some of them are actually innaccurate but if you got your hands in the new ones , nearly all of them if not all got the right colors. I guess you used PE parts once or twice in your modeling life and you think that your arguments are valid, this is your opinion , after all if some PE parts ( older mostly ) got innacurate paints ...... i mean...... you.....you can just paint them yourself Mr.Sherlock............FACEPALM. Nearly all of the other PE parts arent in color so its actually a benefit, if someone dont want to paint PE parts they can just buy eduard PE parts and if some of them (less than 10%) got innaccurate colors you can always paint them yourself. And last of all , by your opinion , the PE parts are that crappy, you had nearly no experience with them since by your experience if they are that bad , why would you buy them , then you cant talk about all of the Eduard PE parts. Maybe you got your hands on some innaccurate PE parts and now you talk trash about the WHOLE RANGE of Eduard PE parts. And yeah , realism as trend is indeed still here , just not that much on youtube, go search on google ( pictures mostly ) and you will see some competitive modelers trying to make the model as realistic as possible ... I just want to say that next time , make sure you got enough experience with something before critizing it, Cheers mate!
@@egyeneskifli7808 And yeah i forgot that the the knobs and switches are as big in this particular F-14 as an 1/72 pilot's fingers.... And the HUD and the mach speed, fuel indicator ,G meter , Thrust meter etc , they got actual numbers in PE parts and in bigger scales you can actually see and recognize the numbers , you cant paint them with by hand so they would look as realistic as PE huds and meters....
My favourite jet
Can you inform us where did you fine this wonderful academy kit, because I can’t find everywhere
Nice work.
One question. As the box art is same with the old one, how do I know the content is the new version?
Did you know that Revell gonna sell a F/A-18 super hormet where they flow in in topgun 2
