F-4B VF-84 - Tamiya 1/48


Recommended Posts

Hi gents,
Here we go with one more Tamiya Phantom...
This is my attempt OOB except for the Eduard tail fin cap.
I used Eduard decals and Tamiya ones for the numerous stencils
Paints are Vallejo acrylics
Regards

Very nice indeed. 👍👍

 

Interesting how we are all doing slightly different takes on the final finish.

Hi,

My favourite F-4 type belonging to my favourite USN squadron, built and painted to perfection. Woah!

 

Congrats!

Well done Sir. I admire your work. You've set the bar mighty high.... Challenge accepted 😉

I'm looking forward to building the same kit but I'll be doing VMFA-323 out of Chu Lai.

Great looking jet!

 

Regarding the new Eduard decals, did you remove the clear carrier film after application? Or were they used conventionally?

It was the second time that I used the new Eduard decals. The "peel off" can be a nightmare, with part of decals went off...Following my (little) expercience, you need to use a strong fit decals solution, to be sure that just the clear carrier film will be remove. 

Following this, the result is impressive, it's look like a thin paint instead of classic decals.
