Academy 1/48 F-4B Phantom with Furball's decals.


Recommended Posts

Hi all, just finished building Academy's new F-4B in VF-51 Screaming Eagles colours. I used; Eduard Brassin resin and PE seats,Mk1 Design exhausts and wheels, Master models turned metal probes, Wolfpack Designs slats and flaps, and the new Furball Designs decals MIG Killers sheet. The paints were Hannants Xtracrylix colours and varnish. The exhaust areas were sprayed with silver Zero automotive paints and sealed with Johnsons Klear after a little pastel weathering using brown and black Rowney pastels. The rudder and nosewheel steering were offset to simulate taxying. I know the kit has a few errors and I had a few fit issues during the build, but the end result looks like a Phantom! I have another one to build, this time in the VF-111 Sundowners markings, I'm just collecting the aftermarket stuff now as it's being released, I'm really looking forward to seeing Wolkfpack Design's resin upgrade set for this kit, I wonder what it will contain?....it's on their site as TBA.
