Kit went together well enough, so any mistakes are my own doing!

 

No detail on the compressor facings, so I printed out some paper one and stuck them in there.

 

Instructions regarding decal placement were a bit "Italeri", so hopefully I got them in roughly the right place.

Very nice build. Gotta love a Fleet Air Arm F-4. I still think the Fujimi Phantoms hold up well against the newer Airfix offerings (sorry Airfix...those panels lines a a touch too deep for my liking). I remember when these first came out back in the late 80s, and the excitement of reading the late Mike McEvoys glowing reviews of them in SAM. Although expensive at the time I couldn't wait to build one as it was one of the most eagerly anticipated kits of the time.
