Great looking Duluth Phantom.  What kit?  

Thanks, it's the Academy kit with gun pod from Hasegawa as I find Academy's a bit thin.

This being a reprint, I did not change anything in the design of the existing sheets. But I am considering another ANG F-4C/D sheet with many of the options I had to skip earlier. As for NJ ANG aircraft - these will appear on a new series of F-4E / RF-4C / F-4G sheets that are coming in the next few months.

 

A nice 123FIS F-4C here

How easy is the Academy kit to build?  I have one and am thinking it should be my next build.

It's a couple of years since I buildt it last, but have 2xC/D's and one B "in stock", so just need the modelling mojo back and I'll get going. I have a 119FW 177FS planned. But overall I like it a lot.

Hopefully, the RF-4C sheet will cover some of the Birmingham RF-4Cs that flew in Desert Storm. They had a wide selection of cool nose art! Here's a small group of photos I took on their flight line on a poor weather day after they returned from the desert.

These are great shots - thanks for sharing them! The second RF-4C sheet will mostly consist of gray jets and I will make sure some of these are on it.

@Mike J. Idacavage Great shots!

 

@KursadA Excellent choice.  "You're Out of Phantoms, You're Out of Action!"  CC Bubba Terry Elrod approves!
