Really nice collection of Super Hornets you got there. Nice selection of markings too. Waiting to see these done up with the individual squadrons.

great job friend. i also have the same idea. build a tomcat sunset project because most of the superhornet squadrons were converted from the tomcat. here is a photos that hopefully will encourage you too.

take your time. my collection took me 2 years to build also. and mine is mostly 1/144 and yours is 1/72.

if you looking for VFA-11 Red Rippers, VFA-31 tomcatters, VFA-32 Swordsmen, i think twobobs decals made aftermarket sheets for them in 1/72. can go website and order. VFA-211 Checkmates need to handpaint or wait because don't have at the moment.

i dont think twobobs produce VFA-32 in 1/72.only jasmine decal.but its very hard to find.so i have to produce my own decal..hehe..
