frogman13 Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Nice save. Sucks when a decal goes wrong and you only had one shot to get it right. Your F-4 is very impressive and well done overall. Ed Okun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottsGT Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 I've been fighting the urge to start one of my Phantom kits before I finish one of my two big projects I'm working on now. And you're not helping! Man, that looks great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spad Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 I just bought this kit then read a few on-line builds and get the impression this is NOT a straightforward kit. Mainly, I keep reading that the engine intakes are very bad and must be replaced. True? If so, which did you use, or did you? Thanks for your time and consideration.

Spad - Remove the raised battle damage repair panels that are strewn all over the kit - Replace the intakes with after market. Some are OOP, but still, seamless intake sets from different manufactures can be found places like Evil-Bay. - Replace the exhaust cans. OOB Tamiya cans are too small in diameter. You can get a set from Gary of GT Resin here on LSP. I dont have a set, but his seem to be closer to the 1:1 dimensions. - Add whatever you want for AM in the pit, but if your not concerned about the minutest detail being accurate in there, you can probably go withe the Tamiya OOB pit. - Also Nautilus models makes a wooden assembly jig to get the dihedral of the wing tips correct, which can be a total PITA by hand - http://nautilusmodels.com/32-802.htm CANicoll 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
