airbus320 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 In preparation for the STGB I have just finished refurbishing two of my hasegawa tooms that I built some years ago. The first example used to be a very early FGR2 as they appeared on delivery in 1969. It is now a mid-70s 31 squadron machine. The second used to be in 92 squadron colours and now wears late 74 squadron markings. The whole gang back together Now on to the STGB! Thanks for looking, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyC Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Awesome, awesome, awesome! Even though I model mostly US stuff, I think the British Phantoms just look so much better than USN/USAF and those are just superb... Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airbus320 Posted June 9, 2011 Author Share Posted June 9, 2011 Thanks for the comments all! Inverted - the blue used for the 19 squadron jet was mixed specially using tamiya paints. IIRC I darkened standard acrylic blue (X3????) using the Ian Black 'last of the phantoms' book as a guide. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zero Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Stunning work What have you used to flatten the paint, the matt finish is perfect on the camo bird. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
