Youngtiger1 Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Paul, this is great work. The wings are coming along very nice. I sure am glad you are doing this because I'm picking up some good pointers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitali Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Great job! So will you use the top section of the Tamiya wing and modify the buldge or the CE wing? The CE wing lacks detail and the panel line is incorrect around the top of the wheel well. P Stoner 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P Stoner Posted May 19, 2014 Author Share Posted May 19, 2014 Today I wrapped up the main wells. I had to call it stops or I'd drive myself nutts trying to get everything right! Theres NO well set out there for this kit and I don't want to go too far with it. The sore spot is the strut conection and it will stay the same so the gear will sit properly. I've detailed the gear out before just to see it yrs later sitting on the wing tank!!... I'm happy with it and on to the next area! Theres still a bit more work to feather the top wing snug against the fuselage then the thinned down wing will be done! This GB has really motivated me and I'm getting more work done than I thought I would. So needless to say I'm having a blast. Plus whats better than having a Phantom in this GB? Having 2 !! Go Phantoms! Paul ghatherly, stusbke, Derek B and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stusbke Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Do all the recce F4's not have the rear sparrow slots? Never knew that one see learn a new phantom thing every day! I want to do a F-4B as well so i'll be surly doing it as per your example as you have been striding along rather impressively fast and with great detail too boot!

thierry laurent Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Indeed, no RF-4 had the Sparrow capability. Thierry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P Stoner Posted May 23, 2014 Author Share Posted May 23, 2014 Not much going on today but doing a once over to clean up the little areas that have detail but may get over looked. One thing about the Cutting Edge F-4B set is the lack of rivet detail and Archer's resin rivets come in handy here! One thing if your putting them on resin prior to painting, is to make sure the resin is clean! Setting solution and resin oils don't like each other!!!.... I'll use the same method for the F-4B. I believe that WolfPack's F-4EJ set has these vents. I found them in one of the 100s of small boxes with Phantom parts! These parts make up for whats on the kit and with a little stock behind them you can feather them into the exhaust part for a smoth tight fit on the cans. I'm not sure if you can get just these 2 parts by them selfs, but will try to find out. Great little piece that adds good detail. The rear tail cone gets just one little extra detail. The white part is a cover for the hinge and dose not flod with the cone. if you open the cone this should be notched out. Since I've repositioned the rudder it's time to get the fuel dump fitted. Once everything getting a once over with 600 and 800 grit it will be time to marry the wings to the fuselage! Go Phantoms!
