RandoAmazing build, love the detail. What tape did you use to mask off for the sanding? Looks thick and rubbery.

CaptGPFLOL! That tape was a freebie from my Tamiya International magazine subscription! It's not as good as the Yellow Tamiya tape for paint masking, but it's thick enough for sanding and scribing.

CaptGPFThank you for the kind words, Spanjaard, Michael and Guy! I used the Meng F-4 as a reference for where the rivets had to go, as well as the spacing 😀

CaptGPFThank you for the kind words Thomas / Daniel / Nathan / Jennifer and Shar! I love jets -me specially ones that are armed to the teeth with pew-pews and boom-booms!

DickPhantoms forever! And you made the best version.. VF-84.
What a beauty, very impressive and realistic weathering!

Nathan DempseyEvery time this one comes up in the feed I get the urge to crack open a few more Phantoms. Inspiring work CaptGPF.

CaptGPFThanks everyone for the kind words Dick / Rui / Olivier & Nathan! Still have a ways to go with weathering - but I'll get there someday! 😀

CaptGPFLOL! I will have to redo that base as it isn't quite accurate compared to a real carrier deck. So many kits, so little time. 😀

Nathan DempseyAlways good to see this one in the feed. I'm going to peer into my unbuilt one's box now…

Nathan DempseyWelcome Torsten & Robert!
I've started the fuselage assembly and clamps were needed.
27 July, 15:43
DutchNathan, I am following along as well. I have friends in eastern Ukraine, so very interested in this one. Kind regards, Dutch
31 July, 20:47
Nathan DempseyWelcome Dutch! This build is turning into a slog. Clamps and super-glue "force-holds" galore. Luckily it is a tiny plane so I'm nearly done already, just completing all the seam sanding.

Nathan DempseyWorking on the cowl. I had to use 2-part epoxy clay to fill a large gap on the bottom of the cowl that was created by making the cowl fit straight & level.
8 August, 20:53
DutchLooking good. Keep up the progress. The splinter pattern will be stupendous when done.
13 August, 16:03
Nathan DempseyThanks Dutch! Man I just realized looking at pictures that the wing camo is a mirror image for the other wing. It won't be perfect… 😁

Nathan DempseyWelcome to the show Ben! I've applied the first color today. Now off to cut masks for the next color. I've been spoiled by those pre-cut masks…
16 August, 17:41
DutchNathan, quick question. Why not just spray the first color overall, then mask only the subsequent colors? Saves at least one step, I should think. Carry on. I am enjoying the show.
16 August, 17:47
Nathan DempseyIn this case I just got a little too happy masking. I even decided against my usual preshade since this plane's paint looks really new in all the pictures.
17 August, 17:20
DutchNathan, are you going to put kill markings on it?

Nathan DempseyWell my printer is dead, but my dad has a similar one so I'm going to try… Wish me luck.
19 August, 17:35
Nathan DempseyThe second color has been applied. Slow going here as my workbench time has been lacking.
25 August, 14:13
Nathan DempseyThanks Dutch! Today I masked off the areas for the gloss black. The tan colored areas are quite small, but they're everywhere. Tamiya tape stock is going up!!

Bruce HuxtableWelcome, Sergio. This one will be OOB, but I'll review some walk around galleries, to see if there are any extras I should add. I think the camouflage scheme will be challenging...
4 August, 21:31
Bruce HuxtableWelcome, Guy. Slow progress, but holidays are over, so progress Wil re-commence!
25 August, 18:48
Robert PodkońskiI will follow this build for sure. I have been tempted so many times to purchase this kit... 😉
26 August, 17:04
Bruce HuxtableWelcome, Robert. I snapped this one as a bargain I couldn't leave on the shelf. It could have been split into many more parts, so a straight forward build, so far 😉
26 August, 17:11
Bruce HuxtableMany thanks for your 'likes', everyone. Lots still to do, plus the camo scheme.....
