Cracking job Tony, lovely paint and weathering, and those nozzle detail decals are genious! I think you could have a market for them!

Andrew Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 That's a great finish Tony and it was a treat to watch your progress on this build, what with it being a new kit and all... I hope that your build inspires someone at Academy to release more boxings of this kit, releases featuring markings for units that operated both the A and A+/B variants over the years, e.g. VF-74 & VF-103 (see what I did there Tony - went straight to units with a 'AA' tailcode!) . It seems a shame to not exploit the presence of so many parts in the one kit. cheers, Andrew. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is just amazing I think Academy do a great quality, value for money kit in 1/72........ but you have seriously taken that bird to another level. Love it Cheers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vultures1 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Absolutely fantastic! Great finish and weathering - superb work on the nozzles 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan B Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 That's something special. The weathering and fading are fantastic, not easy on a solid grey colour scheme. I shall take notes for my current Phantom build. Duncan B 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAT69 Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Once again I'm amazed at the cockpit detail that can be added to something as small as 1/72 scale. Your model is beautiful, a real attention getter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards Andrew Basically mate it was black basing then going over and spraying some touch ups here and there with a lighter shade. Lastly was some spot filters to lighten and darken certain panels to add some variation. More details in the wip link. Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
