tomthounaojam Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Dear folks, It is an old Italeri kit F-4s reboxed by Tamiya iirc, it has raised panel and soft plastic. I started the built this Morning around 4:30 am I scribed a bit, however, since am not good at it yet, so I left middle way. The kit decals were spoiled since it must have been aged so, I got the decals from my good friend Enghui which I got it for something else, turned out to be the perfect for the kit, the decals I learned was made by a friend of mine Jason cheah, It is really good and truly enjoyed it, printed in Italy by Cartograf and can't go wrong. The built was quick so as the paints. Hope it turned out okay, cheers. Not bad for a day work 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Very nice Phantom Impressive for a one day build 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jean Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Not bad at all for a handful of hours' work! I would never attempt something like that. It must be the old Esci kit, later taken over by Italeri. I had no idea Tamiya had snatched it as well... Extremely well done!!! JR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Very nice! It's a bit of a coincidence, as I saw this kit (the Tamiya version) in a local hobby shop just yesterday. The box art showed a built model; the raised panel lines made me strongly suspect it was Italeri/Esci-based. For such a quick build it certainly looks like a great job!

Kapam, It is basic kit and required with of filling as well however it is fairly simple to build. I bit did of tinkering with it, tried some engraving it as well however left since i was not good at it. Maybe it is time to get some old hasegawa kits as well do some quick builds. Thanks mate for the kind words Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
