Vietnam aera F-4E Phantom, Revell


Recommended Posts

and putting on the ordnance

at this stage of the build, i just want to get it finished, there is future over the decals (going down very nice)

and a black wash to bring out the panel lines

all the geardoors are on, only the seats, the canopy, exhausts and some small parts missing

some dullcoat in order and i think i can finally put it on the shelf (out of my immediate sight)

thanx guys

no pics of the finished thing :P

looking at the thing i noticed i forgot to stencil the pylons - bummer

that will be a lot of work now they are on the plane. dont want to break them off (again)

thats one of the challenges of a stalled build, i most of the time tend to forget things because i am really concentrated on another build

well yes, i am still working on this one

after having a hard time finding some flat coat to finish up the paintjob i finally found the (gunze) one i wanted

putting on the last details like the canopy, pitot tube etc and the position lights

this is when i found out i have modified the wingtips wrong :BANGHEAD2:

they still have the boss for the little radome that only slated F-4s have

bummer, the outer wings just dont want to come off, "welded" by plastic glue, i will ruin the paintjob on them if i break them with force :DodgeBall:

it just doesnt want to get finished, it even survived the groupbuild

then i reshaped the wingtips and primed them

i used the revell RF4C kit outer wings as a guide. strangely these have a different shape :frantic: , but i didnt want ot investigate further, the overall shape is the same

the paintjob is ruined and i will have to find some decals
