Your friend, Toshi

That's killer work PJ.

Great job, PJ! Love me some pukin dogs!

Stunning job there PJ, that office is superb.

I do have a question. I am gearing up for the new Airfix Phantom at the end of the month with a plan to build it next year, and was tring to work out the colours to use on the bare metal section of the horizontal tail, especially the darker strip in the middle. What colour did you use on that?

Hey thanks a ton gents for the nice comments.

Hi Bish

For the horizontal stab NMF colors I used aluminum and center strip I used Steel which is darker as per the reference photos.

Which F-4 will you be doing? A US or Brit one? I'm planning on a Brit one next time from Hasegawa. (FGR.2) 

What can I say other than that is a fantastic build!  The office is incredible. 

Great looking Phantom!

Thanks, i guessed alum for the outer section, but was not sure for the darker one. Was trying to figure out which Alclads to use.

Airfix are releaseing an FG.1 next month so will be getting that. I hope they will follow it with an FGR.2, and going from past form with the Harriers and other types they should do.

Thanks guys!

Bish is the FRG.1 1/48?

Thanks. No rivet hole enhacements. The grimy Flory Wash stands out over the lighter base colors giving IMO an excellent representaion of accumulated junk.

This Academy kit comes together very easily needing no putty anywhere. I will suggest the addition of resin seats to really pop that pit. Don't forget to add the intake air sensor tubes on both interior intake outer walls. It's really easy to scratch out with stretched sprue to make both thin T shaped parts.

Fantastic PJ!!

Mmm,Mmm,Mnn, i sure do admire your skills my friend.

Um Hm;

 Phantoms Phorever ! ! 

Thanks Andy, Jay and TB!

PJ, no, 1/72nd. It would not surprise me if they release a 48th one later though.

I googled it and it looks very well detailed specially the nose radar unit. Great looking decals too.

Ye, and the option of folded wingtips and raised front undercarrage leg. They are nice marking options, i think most people will do the Ark Royal scheme, which is what i will do so ican do a carrier deck dio.
