Rockie Yarwood Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Splendid work, Jorge. I am really enjoying following along! Cheers, Rockie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oppenheimer Posted June 20, 2021 Author Share Posted June 20, 2021 The fuselage camo is done, as i said previously this is an airshow Phantom with a bicentennial theme on it, so they normally are in pristine conditions, i am just adding some tonal variation to the colors so it wont look simple, it gives to a look of a slightly weathered paint or kind of dirty look Next is the wing camo and after that all the paneling work, so far none of the panel or rivets have a wash on CZPetrP, Martinnfb, airea and 17 others 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aircommando130 Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 Awesomeness! Looking really good! I think that F-4 had a really glossy black radome too. I ordered the F-4E cockpit set from Red Fox...thanks for the link! Cheers...Ron Anthony in NZ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaro Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 Looking at previous steps I was a little sceptic about the painting job. But now everything looks great! Keep going! Anthony in NZ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scvrobeson Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 Excellent camo work! All of the earlier steps really did set it up for a great result. Can't wait to see it on the wings as well. Matt Anthony in NZ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oppenheimer Posted June 23, 2021 Author Share Posted June 23, 2021 little more progress, had to fix the camo pattern on the nose to match the pattern on the real one and add the brown spot on the fuselage on top of the wing on the left side next to the trailing edge of the wing Left wing is ready, now is the right one turn Starfighter, Piero, TankBuster and 26 others 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony in NZ Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Really beautiful Jorge! You are a master at what you do. I love the paint effects and the real contrast between the tired camouflage and bright markings, just lovely! Is there a photo anywhere of this plane for me to compare with on the thread or did I miss it? Keep up the great work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oppenheimer Posted June 29, 2021 Author Share Posted June 29, 2021 Camouflage on the F-4 is ready, next step is to finish the bottom of it, looks like the hole bottle of MRP paint will be used on the bottom, here are a few pictures of how it looks at the moment scvrobeson, Anthony in NZ, jgrease and 20 others 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scvrobeson Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Wow that looks good. You really did capture the difference between the faded camo and the fresh bicentennial markings perfectly. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
