falcon Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Just managed to get this finished. Airfix 1/72 Phantom FG.1 with Xtradecal markings, Aerocraft resin intake ramps and Spey Cans, Hataka acrylic paints for the main colours and Vallejo Metal Color for the metalics and washed over with Flory Models washes. 45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andwil Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Very nice, but I think the stencils could be a bit too prominent. Maybe it’s the lighting and not so obvious to the eye in natural light? AW 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Delta 210 Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Excellent result in my favourite camouflage. I thought that many more examples would have been posted here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At Sea Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 I'd be delighted with that in 1/48th! Lovely scheme, lovely plane. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F-32 Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Very cool, really nicely done and a great retro scheme 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meatbox8 Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 A really smart looking Phantom in my favourite scheme for the type (after the FAA one, that is). Great paint finish that really enhances the purposeful look of the type. I feel a 56 Squadron one in this scheme coming on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger331 Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Very nice !......takes me back to 1977-78 and peering over the fence at RAF Luqa during the regular RAF APCs that took place....Those were the days...almost weekly visits from the RAF Lightning and Phantom Force honing their gunnery skills on the range. I built a whole squadron of Matchbox F-4s, finishing them in the markings of each Unit as it rotated through Malta - my first dip into the world of aftermarket decals thanks to the late Dick War and Mike Silk of Modeldecals fame. I have to say your model is way more advanced and you have achieved a great finish there. Superb motivation for me to try my hand with one of the new Airfix kits. Well Done, Sir ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
