Great model of a great plane! :goodjob:

 

Also a great kit - as far as I know it hasn't been surpassed in this scale yet? :hmmm:

 

Cheers and keep up the good work! :bye:

Hey Hans

 

Yeah the kit is a gem and it builds to be every bit a Phantom. Thanks for your kind words mate.

Great work, I always loved the Phantom in the grey/green.

Thank you I agree that grey/green really suits a Phantom.

That is a very nice model there, quite fancy one of them.

 

Just one note, I believe you mean II(AC) Sqn rather than 2at Sqn. 

Thank you and thanks for putting me straight on my title 👍

Beautifully finished Phantom.

 

Interesting B&W photo of the same aircraft in Richard L. Ward's 'Phantom Squadrons Of The Royal Air Force And Fleet Air Arm' seen landing at Laarbruch in June 1976 carrying the centerline sharkmouthed EMI recce pod , a strike camera in the forward port  Sparrow bay and a blue ballast Sparrow shape to starboard but with no wing pylons fitted.

Thank you Des, interesting load out? I still need to add the load out to my Phantom you wouldn't happen to have the picture to hand would you?

Hey Matt much appreciated, thank you!

Toomtastic!

 

I've got one in the stash & the Aries pit for it. I was going to do it in the blue 93 Sqn scheme but have changed my mind now. Lovely job.

 

Pete

Hi Pete - thank you mate - she would still look great in the blue scheme and if your interested I too have stared another Phantom and shoe horned the Aires pit into that WIP. If you want any info on cramming it into the Revell plastic please just shout.

Beauty. Love the finish.

Admiring Quack.

Hey Q - thanks mate, I look forward to seeing yours pass the finish line, you're doing a cracking job on her.

Lovely Phantom in  grey/green cammo. What's not to love. Nice work.

Thanks buddy

That is absolutely stunning. I always think that the RAF Phantom looks pretty mean in the original camo. Superb result 👍

Cheers

Phantastic, beautiful finish and brings back happy memories :worthy:
