Phantom assortment


Recommended Posts

I really like the "adidas-phantom"!! I also remember that ESCI kit from my youth! YOu can get a nice F-4 but it requires work, patience and a few AM parts.

BUT...you mentioned Twobobs for the decals, I think they are not available anymore. it was just a limited edition for the NATS one/two/three years ago. So no chance to get it anymore.

Maybe someone don't like to build the white-black striped F-4? And sell the decals for that version????? *hint-hint* :wub:

I was born in the wrong timeframe - would love to see multiple F-4s flying - nice job!

sadly, me too... i would have love to hear that noise! i'm quite happy to have this, over my head, when sat at my work bench.

my passion for Phantom started when i first see the ESCI boxart of the "Adidas" F-4 Phantom MiG Killer... i was 9 years old then, iirc... i did one, a few years back (and shown earlier in this thread)

thank you both, guys, for your comments!

this one is the Hasegawa 1/48 F-4EJ 8th Sq. Special "black panthers"

also done for the purpose of the Phantom Addict Anonymous Group build.

it's the build i'm the most proud of yet!

i used the Wolfpack Design resin update set, that provide a correct nosecone and instrument panels. Aires cans, quickboost seats, hypersonic models stabs, eduard brassin wheels, master metal pitots and Rhino's seamless intakes.

i didn't use the red decals from the decal sheet, as it was too dark... but i use them as template for my masking task.
