Academy 1/48 F-4C Phantom W.I.P. The Long Road Begins
It's time to replace the decades old brush painted Revell F-4 from yesteryear. I've been saving this for a while and practicing for this endevour for weeks on a similiarly painted A-37. I'd been out of the model business a couple of years doing a 1/1 motorcycle restoration and needed a refresher course.
Yikes! What have I gotten myself into? I've never seen that many aircraft parts come out of a box! A ship maybe but not a 1/48 aircraft. Well I always like a modeling challenge and this appears to be one.
This will be even more interesting having seen and photographed the very craft I'm building while visiting the USAF Museum in Dayton Ohio.
Model season for me is the dead of Winter and part of the hell of the Kansas Summer. This will take a while is what I'm saying but I do bits and pieces during bad weather. Be patient with me, at least I've opened the box! Hmm, work to do.
