RMCS Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 This is the quarter scale Phantom FGR 2 92Sqn special blue scheme by Hasegawa. Difficult and expensive to come by, but still the only one on the market. As always an excellent kit with few hangups. Extra detail was provided by eduard PE and resin. The base is home made. Built for one if the aircrew of this aircraft with only three training missiles. This aircraft is being restored at my local museum: Tangmere Military Aviation Museum. 33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel happy that I have one stashed , its about twenty years old now. It has been reserved for the senior service to go along side my slow simmering Buccaneer. Despite some discomfort here and there , it is good that we have decent and available british Phantom in 72nd at last and with a couple of tweeks a 48th version would I imagine be snapped up!

zebra Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Lovely Phantom. I love the metallic bits at the back - what paints did you use for this? I remember seeing this one at Fairford - just looked it up, it was 27 years ago. Now I'm feeling old! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phone Phixer Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Very nice build and finish. Great work. Even if it is from the "other" squadron that was at Wildenrath. 😎 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
