My WIP is here Thanks for looking Geoff M Edited October 27, 2022 by Geoff M Quote Link to post Share on other sites

aircommando130 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Gotta love a Phantom! My favorite fighter! Great job! Cheers...Ron Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Geoff M Posted October 30, 2022 Author Share Posted October 30, 2022 Thanks Aircommando, I love phantoms too. I have several in my stash and I have decided to build them all. Currently doing the Z-M F-4E. Geoff M Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MA Cooke Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Great job Geoff. What paints are on this one? Have you built any of the Z-M F-4's before? I have three in my stash, and was thinking of doing a "simultaneous" build - a Z-M J and Tamiya B at the same time (ish). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have three in my stash, and was thinking of doing a "simultaneous" build - a Z-M J and Tamiya B at the same time (ish). The bottom is a Tamiya Insignia White lacquer and the top is Model Master Light Gull Gray. (I still have a huge stock of Model Master paints.) I gloss coat with Future/isopropyl alcohol 50/50. Flat coat with Valejo Acrylic Flat. Details are all kinds of paints, tamiya acrylics, valejo acrylics, mission model, model master, etc. I built the F-4D a couple years ago. I botched up the landing gear bays (put them in upside down) and ended up building it gear up. I have learned to really look at the directions when building these kits, doh! The Z-M kits are great and the Tamiya is better. I have several more Z-M Phantoms and a couple Hasegawa and one more Tamiya. It is a great time to be a Phantom Phan.

Da SWO Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Nice build, I have a couple more F-16's to build before moving on to my Phantom stash, though I am tempted to just start building the F-4's. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
