Tamiya F-4J Phantom VMFA-451 "Warlords" WIP

The Eduard Seats look nice but they didn't get the parachute pack correct as it's to square. It might pay to round the edges slightly to take the box look away. Nice work on the cockpit so far and great choice of markings.

Wow, mega detail!  Don't get burned out on this one! 

 

Keep it going!

Nope won't be, but that said, it will be put aside once i start my two in flight projects, which need to be finished next year.

keep up the nice work looks great to me

 

Mark

Thank's Mark, i will do my best. :speak_cool:

 

 

I really, really, really want to build one of these so I'm watching this closely.  Bummer about the intakes, have you decided how to tackle that with new fuselage or did you already mention that?

 

Bryan

It's a great kit Bryan, so don't hesitate to do so.

 

At the moment i'm working on the kit intakes to take a closer look how thing's wil be once it's glued filled and sanded. Extra work but before i buy some other intakes i will first try the kit ones.

 

 

Cool progress Danny!

Looking forward to more!

Karim

Thank's Karim, i soon will post some more progress. :thumbsup:

 

Just keep note that this build will be paused from the moment i have enough reference regarding the German Starfighter project and the Belgian Alpha Jet project. These two projects will be in-flight models and will be formed together in a display base with the two pilot helmets. Everything is on it's way a will be expected next week.

Nice start Danny.  I have used the DMold F-4 and F-18 intakes and they are excellent- and in stock here:

For the "splitter plates"/intake ramps, why not just use the kit ones?  They're pretty good with a little modification, which you can see in my F-4E build here:
