mingwin Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 (edited) that one was done in my previous batch, an Hasegawa F-4J converted to F-4C i've take advantage of having to do a dust removal task to take a couple of shots of it (in front of the same black background) future have cracked over the port side of radome... ...i'll have to fix it one day... but not now... as i always look at it from the other side (when hanged to the ceiling...) which is allright...less cracked...

mingwin Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 (edited) as i look to my previous Phantom batch build, i'm rather happy to have improve my skills a little... last batch took me 2 years for doing 8 models... that last batch of 8 other models, done for the Phantom Addict Anonymous, only took me 7 months! ...with better results!

mingwin Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 same premise as previous model shown but this time it's based on the Hasegawa F-4C/D i like this subject, with those sabre-band... and i've never seen it done elsewhere (i make it with Printscale white USAF letters and numbers sheet) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mingwin Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 (edited) here is just two photos of my ESCI bicentennial F-4J the result is slightly less glorious than in my latest attempts... but i'll re-do that VX bird one day... with a much proper kit...and all the features of that precise airplane.

mingwin Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 here is the old monogram VX-4 F-4J... with a lots of stencils added from decal sheets...as the box do not provide much of them... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mingwin Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 that one might be a bit better than my ESCI VX bird, nonetheless i also plan to do it with better decals... and a proper F-4J kit Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mingwin Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 side by side with my latest VX build Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jinxter13 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Phantastic.....Mingwin that is a Phine Phlock of Phantoms.....just simply a Phever Phixer Phor Phamtom Phans. Other than that it's just a magnificent display of modeling and builds, the detail is very, very, nice :thumbsup: . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Some dang nice builds there. Couple I have yet to build too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mingwin Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 Thank you guys! I'm happy if you could have spend a nice moment watching at those photos! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mingwin Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 and now, a last batch of Phantoms... not my most glorious efforts, but to complete the showcase, one by one, of what's hanged from my hobby room ceiling... here we have the Hasegawa F-4G, in the boxart markings... the only original thing about it is the loadout, taken from the hasegawa's weapon set. Paint job is poor, as i've done some agressive post-shading/spot touch-ups over the original colors... (i was not happy with the humbrol colors (i'm colorblind, sometimes colors bugs me...) so i get ModelMasters paints an tried to correct... with mixed results... but again, it's less obvious "in person" than on photo) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mingwin Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 and the last one... IIRC... Hasegawa's 30 years of Phabulous Phantom (the most common hase's F-4E available... ) ...i manage to broke the intakes walkways decals ...so, until i bought another one of that boxing, i'll have to live with it that way...

mingwin Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 (edited) that will be all for, at least a year now! i already have 3 more Phantoms to build... but i"ll wait a little before tackling them... for the moment, i think i'm about to glue some Soviet/Russian jets... thanks again to all of you who have taken their time to take a look at the vast amount of photos i've post here! here'a a last flypast...
