CruZz Posted November 16, 2022 Author Share Posted November 16, 2022 Hello all after very long time. Last 2 months were full of casting and printing with almost no free-time for something new. But, one new set is before finishing. It´s a Phantom J/E exhaust nozzles in 1/32 scale for Tamiya kit and tail section. Plase stay tuned. Thank you all for support, as always.

Mark P Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Looks great! Can I ask why the new tail section? Is there a problem with the kit part? In addition, do you plan on creating F-4 Phantom pylons for the 32nd scale Tamiya kit? Mark Proulx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breaker Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Gonna be honest Jan, I think you've gone a bit heavy on the fasteners - On the plane they're flush to the skin, making them proud like the print shows doesn't seem right. Same with the raised panels on the upper section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Indeed. The work is exquisite but unfortunately inaccurate. All of them were flush on the full-scale airframe. Hopefully, this does not ask for a time-consuming correction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruZz Posted November 27, 2022 Author Share Posted November 27, 2022 Thank you guys! Honestly I can't disagree with you. The raised side panels are rising around 0,15mm. Maybe photo make them raised more then they are in real. Correction isn´t possible probably. Specially the "screws" :-( https://www.alamy.com/tail-of-usa-f4-phantom-jet-aircraft-at-the-american-air-museumduxford-cambridgeshireuk-image229887666.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thierry laurent Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Actually they are so slightly protruding in full scale (close to 2mm) that this becomes negligible when divided by 32 (around 0.06mm). This is why making them flush looks more accurate. Moreover the external edge of each disk is actually protruding more from the panel surface than the center because the screws are tight. This means that actually the screw head is barely protruding more than the external edge of the disk. When building that in CAD you have the surface plus the disk plus the screw head thicknesses. This is different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Williams Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 (edited) Here are a couple of good closeups from Prime Portal. http://www.primeportal.net/hangar/howard_mason5/f-4e_munich/ The fasteners in the darkened area next to the exhaust plume seem to consist of a screw in the middle of a large thin washer. The washer seems dished inward around the screw. The screws on the vertical sides and aft of the hook appear to be screws with a large thin flat head (part of the screw itself). Also a few dome head screws. Edited November 27, 2022 by Dave Williams CruZz, daveculp and chukw 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Thanks Dave. Your explanation is better than mine! It is because the washers (disks) are dished that finally nothing is noticeably protruding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
