themongoose Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 This is Revell's 1/32 scale 1983 boxing of the Phantom :-) Done to the new IPMS Basic Kit Build rules. Beyond the paint scheme I thinned the trailing edges, drilled out the fuel vents and other miscellaneous vents on the aircraft, painted in some vents as well, and made everything that I could work just the way Revell wanted it to be for the kids who originally built these...just like me, a big kid now :-) You can check out the full build by following the link in my sig if interested In memory of Jason - USMC Herc.

RicardoD Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Cool scheme, first time I have seen it. Is this just some very patient piece of paint work? Or is it decals and where to find them if so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cut masks for my silhouette cutter and used them to set up the graphic for painting. Edited July 30, 2022 by themongoose RicardoD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
