Charlie Cheetah Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 :( Phew, I just finished less that an hour ago, at 11:50pm AST (GMT -4:00). Like a few others I presume, some paint and glue was still tacky when I snapped the shots. It's a 1/48 Hasegawa F-4J built with the kit decals for VF-84 Jolly Rogers, inside is a BB cockpit set. Paits for the most part are MM Enamels. I started building it on November 7th, the quickly got bogged down with a very tough fitting cockpit. Once that was intalled to my satisfaction, I continued with the rest of the build. I did rush it a bit and cut a few corners in the process. I only lost 2 small parts this time. And I noticed as i was taking the pics that I forgot to paint the antiglare panel... Anyways, enough rambling, here's my pics #1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bugfan Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 :) WAHOO CHARLIE!!! That looks great. I always liked the looks of a Phantom in those markings, and this ones no exception. Yeah I agree 1 month just aint enough time for me either, but I cant blame anyone but myself. NICE BUILD SIR!!! :) Jack aka BUGFAN Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Charlie Cheetah Posted December 10, 2005 Author Share Posted December 10, 2005 Oh Cr@p! i just noticed the fuel drain vent is missing. It broke off during the masking, and I forgot to replace it. I better dig that out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
