McDonnell F-4C Phantom II, USAF (1/48, Eduard)


Recommended Posts

Amazing work and attention to detail, probably one of the best F-4 builds I've seen.

I don't think you could have done any better, well done!

Ahm, where is the model now please?

Fully agree - the best Phantom I have seen ever being modeled - and I saw many really good ones.

Well done - congrats.

Cheers,

Michael

Thank you very much gentlemen. I'm quite humbled by such warm reactions. I'd like to shed more light on this particular airframe. Light gull grey scheme was short lived during the Southeast Asia War and #676 was no exception. She was assigned to 45th TFS stationed on Ubon RTAFB in Thailand from April 1965 to January 1966 when she was assigned to 12th TFW on Cam Ranh Bay AB in Vietnam. Shortly after, she received famous SEA camouflage scheme. She was written off after mid-air collision over South Korea during the summer of 1969.

May I ask wich camera do you use?

Sure you can Andy. Nothing fancy, it's just common Canon PowerShot SX130 IS.

Ahm, where is the model now please?

She rests in the transportation box ready to travel around the Europe for several model shows.

Surely EVERYONE must love the Phantom. You have done an outstanding job of yours in a scheme that you do not usually see for a SEA bird.

Really good work.
