Interesting pick for a 10 day challenge. But I guess it wouldn't be a challenge without a challenging kit. Best of luck.

I hope so too. 😄
Day 4/10: KP has given me a lot of fantastic sanding opportunities, but I'm finally getting to the priming. But it still needs a lot of fixing before I can start painting it.

"Sanding opportunities" is a nice way of putting it 😄
So far so good, looks like you have a good chance of pulling this off.

Day 6/10: Starting the paintjob with colour correction. The colour of the gear bay is grey and not bluish grey, and the wheel rim is typical Russian green and not grey. So I had to repaint a few things today. I use Ammo masking putty to temporarily hold small parts like this.

Thank you, Cuajete! 😊
Day 7/10: One of the top camouflage colours is Mr. Hobby H307. The other colour suggested by KP is H305, which is too grey. So I mixed in several blues, green, red and white. I can't post the proportions, but it's pretty close to the Pakistani bluish grey.

Japanese Phantom F-4EJ KaiNouveau: 19 October, 07:05 1:72
After I mounted the exhausts I considered them too shiny. So, a satin varnish coat followed. Now I like it better

Hi Ben. The engravings of this kit are so delicate that they loose depth with the application of primer to such an extent that panellining becomes quite tricky. I would continue to prime models where this doesn't seem to be an issue but modern airliners or small scale models with such fine engravings I will try to do without. I suppose propper surface preparation and use of colors with more 'bite' than acrylics would be a good idea to avoid issues with paint adhesion.

Not priming a model with fine shallow lines is a great idea. I would guess if you use stronger lacquer based paints its not an issue. Will try this on my next model with fine lines! Awesome progress BTW looks really good!

Tamiya makes "fine surface primer" I think for this application. I find it does not level as well as the regular product though.

Almost done. Now I have to adjust the shine. Even with the use of flat clear from Mr. Hobby the paint appears too shiny. Afraid to use AK Ultra Matt as this will be as matt as matt can be and thus maybe a bit too much. Then painting the radon and mounting the exhausts.

I was cheerfully positive to finish this bird today. But the gods of modelling had other plans. After removing the canopy masks I discovered an area where paint/varnish has crept under the edge and marred the inside. Shit. But I will live with it. Then I recalled that the seals of the canopy were still to be done. A quick freehand job seemed to be a sure road to regret and disappointment. So I was in for another round of masking. Painting will follow tomorrow- hopefully.

Built in a week? Holy moly, great workl 👍
@Ben The finest Primer I know are the MRP ones. It is thinner than many paints! On plastic I still prefer Alclad with micro filler, but the MRP sticks better on resin.

Thanks! I'll see next time I'm at the hobby shop if they have MRP stuff. I have always found tamiya primer to stick to anything but I don't like how the fine surface primer can pool and not level.
This phantom one thing I'm really enjoying are the striped metallic portions showing the ribs. It's very well done. And I see lots of great surface detail despite the Mr surfacer.

Wow, nicely done! Do you mind me asking what paints/colors you used for the finish and roof? Looks great!
Also, how did you do the license plate? Looks very clean.
Thanks!

Thank you for your comment! The body is GSI Creos #8 Silver sprayed with #101 Smoke Gray. The roof is Gaianotes CB-25 Desert Orange 33825.
The license plate was made by cutting a piece of Tamiya plastic sheet to size and sticking the included decal on it.

Good job.
But it seems to me that the chosen color is not the most successful.
That's how it turned out for me-

Thanks for that info H Kato. I didn't expect the license plate to be a decal - looks great!
Denis, yours looks very nice as well! I might have to pull my kit off the shelf.

Hello Denis. Great work! If I get the Edsel kit again, I'll make it even better, and you won't be able to say that anymore. Look forward to it!
