alain11 Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 Hi gents Here is at last my RF 4 EJ. This is the Tam's kit at the 1/32 scale..... some AM sets, namely: the Eduard exhaust nozzle, the AMS jamming pod, the Red fox cockpit set (I've modified the top of the front instrument panel), and the Sparkit seats (very nice stuffs, I only added the safety pins)........ and of course some scratch build here and there such as the cockpit side walls , and rear bulkheads ( this cockpit is the weakest point of the kit ) , the Lorop recce pod ,which works with the two camera sights ( I guess) into the aft canopy , a bit of wires into the gear bays . the stencils are a mix of the Tam 's decals , and Procal's ... the Woody wood peaker 's head is hand painted .. paints are Mr hobby ( H 319 , 340 313 and 315 .......so now ...enjoy ...or not ......... thanks for watching cheers Alain spook, johncrow, TankBuster and 43 others 45 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aircommando130 Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 Awesome Phantom! You gave the Tamiya kit a lot of love to get it to look that good. When I was stationed at Kadena I'd get lunch and go to Naha airport and watch the F-4EJ's taxi and go fly. Nothin like the sound of J-79's in burner going down the runway.

Stokey Pete Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 Oh yes! This looks spectacular Alain. The Japanese sure know how to give us unique schemes to model. Any Phantom is an awesome one, but when they’re dressed up like that, they look amazing. Martinnfb and alain11 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmax Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Brilliant work Alain! The cockpits and seats are brilliantly executed, the decals are mind boggling, but of course the woodpecker - that is the cherry on top... alain11, Pete Fleischmann and Martinnfb 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vulcan Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 The hand painted Woodpecker is brilliant - great result Pete Fleischmann, Martinnfb and alain11 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grissom Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Hi Alain, I think you've nailed the finish! Such a clean, detailed and lovely build. I, like most members of this forum?, have a large Tamiya Phantom in the stash. If mine turns out to be half as good as yours, I'll be happy.

Michael931080 Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 That is an absolutely stunning build! Would be foolish not to admit I’m envious of the effort you put into this! alain11 and Martinnfb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
