I wish I'd seen your Aires cockpit earlier as I had no idea what the sidewall detail looked like. Absolutely agree! They are very prominent and generally get ignored. Carry on the great work! Charlie, For the cockpit detail I have been using the virtual cockpit tours from the National Museum of the USAF. https://www.nationalmuseum.af.mil This one is special to me, because as a kid I was lucky enough to sit in their F-4 sit-in cockpit exhibit many, many times.

Alan P Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 This has come together really well, so many great builds on this GB 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rib Man Posted November 15, 2021 Author Share Posted November 15, 2021 Lots of work since the last update. I added a panel line wash, decals, and matte finish. I made it through almost all the stencils before I gave up on that. I'm happy with how the decals turned out this time. I went with markings from the 8th TFW in which Robin Olds and W.D. Lafever shot down a Mig-21 in May, 1967. Call sign Flamingo-1. Lots of little bits left to go, but I am done with the fuel tanks, pylons, TER's, MER, and most of the canopy painting. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnson Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Looks really great. Love the paintwork, all Phantoms look good but I do like the SEA camo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
