KursadA Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 (edited) CD48231 will be a 1/48 sheet for USAF/ANG RF-4C recon Phantoms in SEA/Euro 1 scheme; from Vietnam to early 1990s. Some classic schemes I have wanted to do for a long time. 10 options on this one. Not quite done yet, there are some elements missing and some colors to be corrected (hence the small image) ; but close enough to be finished that I will go ahead and announce. I should be able to complete and send it to be printed this weekend. Obviously there is an all-black second sheet with serial numbers, tail codes and other black markings that you do not see on the main page; and a common stencilling sheet which will later be available as a Basics sheet.

Kurt H. Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Great news! The RF-4C gets the Caracal treatment! thanks Kursad! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Da SWO Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Another fantastic sheet, bummed the MS ANG isn't on it, but I understand size limits. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Oooh, I like it. Especially since it is part 1 and portends a part 2! And I assume that it will also get the 1/72 treatment as well? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
B-ONE27 Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Here we go!!!! Time to dig up my RF-4B from the stash. This is most welcome... Me have a feeling 2023 is going to be the year of the mighty Phantom for me!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'll most def be all over this one! 👍 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Niels Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Hi Kursad Any chance of some profile pictures of the jets on this sheet? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike J. Idacavage Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 Building a model from this and hopefully a follow-up sheet on the RF-4Cs used in Desert Storm will become much easier with the announced RF-4 series from Zoukei-Mura next year. I talked with some of the ZM staff at the recent IPMS Nats in San Marcos and was told that work is now underway in the development of these kits. Here's the official announcement that they had on their stand. Have fun modeling! Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty cool that they're planning a thin-wing RF-4B, not just a boxing with decals for the last couple of RF-4B's with thick wings. Cheers, Stefan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted November 28, 2023 Author Share Posted November 28, 2023 (edited) The first RF-4C sheet is not too far away - I will enable preorders sometime next week and start shipping both 1/48 and 1/72 sheets a few days after that.

cpoud117 Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 Very cool, I'm looking forward to part 2 with the grey schemes (hopefully) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AD-4N Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 I'd love some early 1/72 RF-4C in light gull gray and white. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike J. Idacavage Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Should there be any extra space on the RF-4C Part 2 sheet, it would be nice to squeeze in the minimal markings for a QF-4C drone. This would be a nice way to honor the end of the career for the F-4C! I shot these photos down at Tyndall AFB in 2010. Of course, I would not want to bump of any Birmingham RF-4C Desert Storm Phantoms with their nose art... Have fun modeling! Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
