Popular Post Thant Posted January 15, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 15, 2021 Happy New Year to all my modeler friends! Now the nearly two-month-long project has come to an end. Although is was planned to finish last December, I couldn't due to some issues. I have always wanted the F-4 Phantom in my collection and now that I have finally got one! It's the J version of F-4 from US Navy and the markings are Vf-102 Diamondbacks which you do not see often like the Jolly Rogers or the 3-tone Air Force Versions. The kit is from Academy in 1/48 scale. The quality of the fit and details are acceptable but I wanted a super detailed Phantom in my collection So I decided to add lots of upgrade accessories. These are- Cockpit PE, RBF Tags and Resin wheels from Eduard. F-4J Resin Nozzle from Reskit. Ejection seats and Electronic bay from Aires. Air intake covers from Quickboost. Carrier deck section base from one of the Chinese brands called Phoenix. Plus the missile head covers and pitot tube covers are scratch built. The build is enjoyable with only minor fit issues. Decals are of very high quality and so pleasing to apply as they are printed by Cartograf. 101 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Modeller Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 That is so good. Superb. It’s got me going up to the attic to fetch a couple of F-4J kits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billn53 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Super job! I especially like how realistic the metallic areas around the exhaust are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Riot Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 That’s utterly incredible. How do you get it so flawless? What weathering technique do you use? I’ve seen some outstanding models on here, but this is possibly the most realistic I’ve seen, certainly that I can remember. I wish mine looked like this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
