I'm in too! The Revell F-4F is very nice! The only downfall is the shape of the canopy...

Ekki, Patrick, thanks for your interest and happy for accomany me in the project.
Regard canopy I think so that there is a problem, but overall not so noticable for example in compare to Trumpter 1/72 Su-24 Nose issue.

Nice project. I wasn't aware of such good details on Revell's kit, they even molded the dials 😠

Lukasz, for several years Revell kits distributed in Iran in very reasonable price, this kit is very popular among Iranian Modellers. But easy availablity of the kit, makes its advantages less visible. The good News is the fitting of the kit is near perfect. Overall , enjoyable model yo build. If you like phantoms then try it😉

I totally agree Saeed! That Revell Phantom is beautiful and very well engineered! If you leave the canopy open, the shallow form isn't that noticeable. I used the Academy closed canopy on a Phantom I wanted to model closed up.

Thanks guys, good to know. I have one in my stash (the black&red one) and I think these are the very same sprues.

Hello mates 🙂 here is the result untill now! Phantom will be loaded by some Mk81 bombs in near future . How ever if I find enough time it will be part of little diorama.

Phantom is a photogenic plane Hans! Its second phantom I had build and at least two more Iranian will be built. D version and RF one!

It really turned out great! 👍 Nice complementing colors and subtle panel lining. One thing though: shouldn't the color demarcation line on the fuel tanks be a little lower?

The phantom is almost complete after loading with MK bombs (the bombs are from hobby boss 1/72 A-7 kit as there is only missiles in the revell box).
Final update! (may be😉😢

Thank you spanjaard.Considering even the best results can be done better and technically there is no flawless work but to be honest its what I personally expected at the start and happy about it.

Along with old luftwafe, Vitnam USAF and Hellenic phantoms (IMO), liitle asia camo is attractive for phantom's Bernd.

Beautiful Phantom in a special livery. Maybe to use thinner paint layers in future projects so that the preshading shines a bit more through.

Micheal, you know at start I preshade the kit, but I am not fan of exaggetad weathering. So there is diffrence between what I see with my naked eye and what my camera captures. Its not related this one but all of my built, in my exprience to showing you and other mates I must take photo with DSLR, but usualy I start photo with mobile that not able to shows entire detail.
However I agree with you about thinner paint.
