The latest new decal set from Zotz covers a pair of nice F-14A Tomcats - the sharkmouthed cats from VF-111.

One of the more famous paint schemes for the F-14A featured rare nose art on the CAGs aircraft "Miss Molly". The CAG bird wore full color markings which are replicated in this set. In addition, Miss Molly artwork is provided for both sides of the nose including white backgrounds to ensure color contrast of the artwork.

For those looking for a more tactical cat, a subdued Sundowner is also provided.

F-14A

While two sets of distinctive markings are provided, only one set of intake walkways, slimelights and emergency markings are included. You'll need to find a set of the maintenance stenciling elsewhere.

The instructions are well-illustrated with top and side views showing where all of the identification markings go. This decal set is also available in 1/32 and 1/72 scale as well.

This will definitely dress up your favorite Tomcat kit!
