Plumbum Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 I am picking back up on this. It's a bagged Accurate Miniatures, old Monogram F-4C/D I am converting to a British F-4J. The kit comes with the parts to build an F-4C/D and stabs, burner cans, navalised cockpit to do an F-4J also. I simply added the hump on the wings for the larger wheels, sanded off the IR seeker and opened up the wells where the bridle for the launch cables hook to under the fuselage. I am searching for 74 Sq black tail air frame.---John OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA by jvandeu53, on Flickr f4c to j 10 by jvandeu53, on Flickr OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA by jvandeu53, on Flickr OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA by jvandeu53, on Flickr OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA by jvandeu53, on Flickr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plumbum Posted August 10, 2017 Author Share Posted August 10, 2017 This is the scheme I am looking at. Who does good after market decals with this scheme in 1/72 scale? I am modeling this one clean, no pylons, weapons or tanks of any sorts. Thanks---John F4J 74 Sq by jvandeu53, on Flickr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if only Hannants could replicate these sheets in 1/48th, they'd sell out pretty quick. So many people with Revellogawa Phantoms in their stashes waiting on sheet releases....I'm one of them!

Plumbum Posted August 10, 2017 Author Share Posted August 10, 2017 Thanks, wish they had done a PR Spit Mk 11 on that Xtradecals sheet, I'd have jumped on it!---John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyTiger66 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 This is an interesting project and that's a nice scheme John; I particularly like the black tail. I'm looking forward to this WIP; nice work on the cockpit . Best regards TonyT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plumbum Posted August 10, 2017 Author Share Posted August 10, 2017 Thanks Tony, I hand painted the cockpit, no decals. I try to paint all my cockpit details, decals look too fake to me.---John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
