Murad ÖZERPhantastic beast!
Got a question: how did you highlight the panel lines like that - with tamiya smoke?

I strongly disagree with the so-called "pre-shading" tehnique that sadly has gained such a widespread use. It is not realistic and counter-intuitive. In real life the paint degrades from the outside (weather, sun, scratches and chipping, and so on) not from the inside as this "pre-shading" would lead you to believe.
I begin with the base coat of paint as accurate as possible and on top of that various filters and washes are applied.
My base wash is done from grey pigment, dissolved in water, on top of which other filters are applied. For filters the acrylic Vallejo ranges are used, both model color and Vallejo Air.

Kerry COXWhat I am impressed with is the attention to the bare metals on the tail end, The Titanium, magnesium stainless and tungsten, all look exactly like it is on all phantoms. Super job Lucian. Salute !! 🙂

Originally, the kit was the F-4B variant which I upgraded to represent an accurate J version. All the details were re-scribed
