Uncle Tadhg Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 Excellent! I LOVE FAA Phantoms, and that one's a real gem. I also like what you did with the intakes, that's the plan for my current one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Hooker Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 (edited) Just completed. Revell 1/48th F-4D, 23rd TFS/52nd TFW, Twenthe AB - TAM 1976. Strictly OOB build. It's basic, it's rustic, and the cans are aweful.........but I didn't 'alf enjoy it! Bugger, just realised. Wrong section!!

Navy Bird Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 I'm posting this so I can reference it as I respond to a comment on another thread... This is the original Revell USA 1:32 F-4J Phantom II kit, which was first released back in the 70s or early 80s. God awful kit - quite possibly the worst kit I've ever worked on. The result here came after three years of off and on work, several tubes of putty, and some serious cursing and drinking. Arghhh! Nothing fit, the shape is wrong, the canopies too flat, it goes on and on. Finished in 1985 - I ended up scratchbuilding the entire cockpit and ejection seats, most of the radar, folded the wings, and added the open RAM air turbine bay. I moved the rudder and nose gear, dropped the flaps, added the canopy lock mechanisms, and pronounced it dead on arrival. I was too stubborn the bin the beast. It's been sitting in the back of the display case ever since - many of the decals (especially the stencils) have yellowed over the last 26 years. So here it is! Back to the display case it goes!
