Already looking awesome.....and it's something different I could use in a zombie diorama.

I was wondering how your old 1/32 F-4E turned out? Been going thru some of the older questions and I'm in the same boat as you, but I have 2 of these kits. Yeah, there's a lot of problems with the kit, but someone in Fine Scale Modeler (not the woman mentioned) also built this same kit, but he downsized the front/back instrument panels and the side consoles. Looked great. Don't remember if he fixed the problem with the canopies. Don't know what paint scheme you're looking at, but I still haven't figured out how to post photos here, other wise I'd be showing you a 18th TFS F-4E based out of Elmendorfduring the late 1970's with 2 MiG kills----or if you want, how about some Red Flag F-15/F-16 "kills" or Maple Flag markings? If interested, contact me at willc453@yahoo.com

$1,800 is way out of my price range for a display cabinet, but check places that sell used office/store equipment. Earlier this year bought a 6 foot tall, 5 foot wide & 2 foot deep store dsplay case like used in hobby shops for $350 which also included delivery.
