After I give her a gloss coat to seal the decals, I'll start the process of molding the stabilizers, the ones I have in the kit are unslotted and the F-4E has slotted stabilizers. Maybe tomorrow I'll get a chance to do a wash on her and my Macchi.

Finally been able to do some work on my F-4, on the home run now. Just have to cast a couple of seats, paint and close canopy and paint and install exhaust nozzles. That should just about do it.

Superb paint job, Michael. It seems on some photos, that the decals are silvering a little bit in places, but overall the finish looks fantastic! Keep it up, best regards, Hubert

Thanks everyone.
@Dale, hi, no idea at the moment.
@Hubert, hi, there is some small amount of silvering, but as I was going to throw this kit away I'm not to bothered by it. There are a couple of things missing like re-fueling dump on the tail and support strut on front oleo, but I'm going to just cut my losses with those and move on.😢

Album info

Due to not having all the correct decals for my Aussie F-4E I decided to use the same kit and do her in U.S Air Force markings instead. She'll be done in the markings as she was when she was based at Bitburg Air Base Germany, 1969.
