F-14D Tomcat open exhaust nozzles for Tamiya kit (3D Printed), 1/72 - ResKit Models RSU72-0337

The ResKit Models RSU72-0337 set offers open-jet exhaust nozzles intended for the F-14D Tomcat Tamiya model kit at 1/72 scale. Made using 3D printing, this detailing accessory helps reproduce the rear section of the twin-engine aircraft, with open engine exhausts.

The Grumman F-14D Tomcat is the ultimate version of the famous American variable-geometry carrier-based fighter. Its two engines and exhaust nozzles are particularly noticeable elements on a finished scale model, especially when the aircraft is displayed on a stand, an aircraft carrier flight deck, or in a maintenance diorama.

Designed specifically for the Tamiya kit at 1/72 scale, this set is for modelers who want to replace and/or enhance the exhaust parts of their F-14D. At this scale, careful preparation of the parts, appropriate bonding for the 3D-printed elements, and progressive painting will help bring out the internal and external volumes of the nozzles.

The finish can be worked with a suitable primer, metallic shades, and darker tones in areas exposed to heat. Light dry fabric or washes and a measured weathering effect then help emphasize the relief without hiding the fine details.
