I'll take a close look at your model. I have the same one in my stash and would like to build it myself in the near future. Have fun Neil!

Wow! Welcome all. Really great to have interest from such a talented bunch of fellow modellers. @stephan, looking forward to your version very much also 👍👍 @mark, I know, I'm a bit nuts! I love having lots of the go, takes a while to complete and I'm useless at doing reveal photos. But it keeps it all fresh for me! My job is all about multiple projects, so similar state of mind! 😂

I do NOT envy you your masking job but it should look amazing when you finish (or run out of tape). 👍

Hi John, thanks for your interest mate. I should be ok tbh as the kit comes with a superdecal (cheat) sheet! So although there's some stressful masking on a metallic finish, it's hopefully all doable 👍 I've added some more images today. Thanks for your likes also to all who've dropped by too 🙂

I did this one as well. Those decals are actually pretty good.
I tried acrylic metallics for the first and last time on this one. When I removed the masking for the red, it pulled EVERYTHING, primer included, right up. The finish was awesome until then. Alclad and Metalizer for me from there out.

Hi J35J - thanks very much 👍 🙂
Hi Donald, Yes, I agree, the kit decals are nice - though they are on the thicker side. On application they hide a lot of the kits surface detail in my opinion. However subsequent passes with more (and more!) softening and setting solution is doing them justice - more pictures to follow. Sorry to hear of your paint issues when building. Yes. My version is painted solely with Vallejo acrylics: Vallejo primer, Vallejo colour and Metal Colour 👍 You rescued your version well, looks good 🙂

Thank you. In person you can see the areas that pulled fairly clearly.
I used Solvaset on the decals. That managed to get them to settle down fairly well. But yeah, it did hide a bit. BUT, i liked the thickness as those large ones required a good bit of fiddling to get where they needed to be and they stood up to the handling perfectly.

Thank you for the kind comments and likes. This was a rescue build of a kit that I had started 20 years ago, and boxed it up when I was sent overseas. Tamiya's BF 109E is still a great build. I really using Flory Dark Dirt Wash as a pin wash and "popping" it with an enamel oil filter.

Great progress, it will be a great model at the end. Is that the Aires resin cockpit set for the F-4F which you adapted?

Thank you very much to everyone for your support and follow-up 🙂
@Marius : I had the SBS Models resin kit in stock for the Revell kit. This kit is well detailed but complicated to place in the Phantom. I recommend the Aires Kit, much superior in every way 😉
