Very nicely  done. But at first I thought that something had gone terribly wrong with the colour settings on my phone. 

Until I saw the original photo. I don't think I ever saw that scheme before. It obviously never took off so to  speak.

Different rumours -either a batch of contaminated paint, or a replacement as the SEA Brown was running low stock wise … there’s a few ref pics of some Lakenheath airframes around …

I recall seeing F-4s painted this way during an air refueling mission over Europe back in the mid to late 70's. It's good to see someone model one of those planes. Nice job!
