    Love the overall look and a great finish, something I have learnt recently is to apply a gloss varnish to the whole model to seal everything in before applying decals, then glossing the decals before finishing off with a matt varnish would hide the clear edges of the decals.

    Thank you for showing how you did the model. I have the Box laying on my tablet together with the F/A-18E Topgun and the big F/A-18F.
    I haven't done a jet before, so this was a great help. With the accent color and dirting.
    I have to say it looks like you got a old kit before revell revamped themselves. Mine has a different decal paper and a colored instruction also the part quality is more precise.
    Interestingly, I ordered mine July 2021 and you building it November 2021. Looks like you sadly got a old kit.
    Best regards Aleks

    Hmm - except this isn't just a Revell build - which was what I was looking for. Lovely work btw but a bit of a 'flex' re your skills as you need to buy two kits to get the overall effect as the Tamiya one is almost double/triple the price of the Revell kit. A more accurate title to your vid would be useful.

    I, too, wondered why you didn't build the Tamiya kit, but I thought you may have had some left-over Tamiya parts that you could incorporate into the Revell.
    I wondered why you didn't pain the helmets of the figures as Maverick and Goose.
    There are ways to avoid the shiny decal reflections that I see on the final show.

    If real navy aviators saw your model they would be very offended. You can compare it to a Navy Seal without a trident on his chest. And you load your Tomcat with bombs from a former f-4 from the 70's. Don't get me wrong, You are probably a good scale modeller, but you should inform yourself better with navy information because it will offend you a lot that way.
