Gelerth Posted June 10, 2011 Author Posted June 10, 2011 Wow look really neat Love the base how did you do it ?? Cheers Neo Thanks. Base is made from plasterboard. Lines have been inscribed with a needle. Then I mixed some Tamiya X-1 Black with wood glue and some Sidolux (it's a polish version of Future or Klaar). This mixture was poured into grooved line. When it dried I put randomly some grey, dark gray and black pigments and I rubbed them with a big brush. Some minor corrections had to be made and that's it. It's pretty easy and it took me about 2-3 hours to do it.
Eagledriver Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 (edited) Nice Smoker. Did you apply post shading on the camouflage. Happy Modelling Luc Edited June 11, 2011 by Eagledriver
Gelerth Posted June 11, 2011 Author Posted June 11, 2011 No, I didn't. I did only preshading then tri tone camo and some color modulation. Most of the effect that you are talking about is made with wash and oil paints.
jozef Posted June 13, 2011 Posted June 13, 2011 Hi There is NEVER enough Phantom. GREAT build. Thanks for posting. Jozef
Macbain Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 Love the preshading and subtle weathering. Real motivation to work on my F-4J.
David Hansen Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 Very nice work! Brings back childhood memories of building the Monogram F-4C/D back in the late 70s.... -d-
andromeda673 Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 just proves that with some time and patience, and a steady eye/hand, you can build this thing out of the box to not only look perfect, but superb!!!!! although I'm all about AMS as much as everyone else on the boards here. Nice job, and you should be very proud of your work.
aircommando130 Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 I was cruising around looking at 32nd scale Phantoms and saw this one! Great job on the faded/worn SEA paint. A true warbird that survived the Vietnam war...it's forever preserved as a memorial on a stick in front of ANG headquarters at Andrews AFB. I did my final re-enlistment in the USAF under that F-4. It still carries it's MIG kill on the left splitter plate. The Phantom II is my favorite fighter! Again...great job! Cheers...Ron USAF Oct 1974-Feb 1999 Kagemusha 1
