Guest Peterpools Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Absolutely brilliant work, The added details and re-work assemblies blend in just perfectly and look simply tremendous. Keep 'em coming :popcorn: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek B Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Great build I am so pleased that you are actually using this conversion set as opposed to just storing and selling it on as many other seem to do! I am very impressed with the way that you have overcome the various issue and problems that you have faced along the way.

kitbasha Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 Thank you all for your kind words and positive encouragement! It's a hefty project and this really helps. More updates soon, I will be tackling the tailplanes next, they will be a mixture of kit parts, resin non slatted tailplanes from CE kit and some scratchbuilt bits. Also considering a change of markings, there may soon be a 1/32 EMI photo recce pod making an appearance......watch this space!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kitbasha Posted September 3, 2013 Author Share Posted September 3, 2013 (edited) Sorry for the delay in posting, damned work getting in the way! I'll have to get a move on now, Telford IPMS Nationals not far away now!! Ok, I've applied the top and bottom camouflage colours, very simply applied pre-shading with Tamiya black, hand sprayed the dark sea grey area, masked these off with hand cut tracing paper masks held in place with blobs of Copydex. The dark green was then sprayed on. Once dry, the lower areas were masked off with Tamiya tape, pre-shaded, and the light aircraft grey applied. The intake areas had been previously masked and sprayed with white and dark sea grey intake lips. UPDATE TOO!! I've decided that the aircraft will now be finished as the popular 41 Squadron FGR 'sharkmouth' XV495, it's a scheme that is included in the Wild hare CE set and looks really good! The EMI photo recce pod is currently being made as a vacform by LSP member Tim Perry, thank you Tim! Finished model will sport AIM and Sparrow missiles plus the SNEB pods, should look mean and moody!

Daywalker Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Damn that looks good! Oh, how I wish I had that one in MY display case! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babs Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Very nice work. I've always appreciated the british versions of the F-4, a little more in the colors scheme Barley grey and sea grey medium. Yours seems to become great in these colors.

wunwinglow Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Looking excellent! Hopefully this might inspire a few more FGR2 and FG1s to be built. And I have a few days off work coming up, so should be able to crack on with the EMI pod! Keep up the great work, Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
