Getting started on my next project! In my opinion, the Fine Molds F-4 Phantom II series has eclipsed the venerable Hasegawa kits. Both are still great kits, but Fine Molds have produced a real winner. I love this JASDF retirement scheme but I was a bit worried about all those decals. The metallic blue areas are a bit thick (probably due to the printing process) and required a lot of decal solvent to conform properly to the model surface. Eventually they did, but it was a struggle at times. I will have to somehow match the metallic blue colour when painting the drop tanks as that obviously cannot be a decal. Hopefully I can get something close. Cheers, Bill

I love these JASDF anniversary and retirement schemes. This one is especially lovely.
