OOB build of a great looking plane

To add detail to cockpit I used the new "Real Colors Markers" they work well with great coverage and so far the "brush" tip makes the job easy and natural

Bruce Huxtable
Very neat and tidy cockpit, Sy. You must have a very steady hand!

DerMattes
Nice cockpit! Folowing 👍

Sy Bar
Cheers for coments peeps, as I said the tips of the markers do all the work but not having too much coffee before also helps 😁

Sy Bar
The Hunter is just about the best looking jet to have flown

Nicolas
Great start.

The instruction in step 16 confused me for awhile. I got the cutout bit (seams the large extra fuel tanks interfered with the flaps!) but it took some time to workout the fill instructions.
It's only when you put the newly clipped flaps on you see the gap left on the wing, creating too much drag and the fill becomes obvious 🤪

Thomas Kolb
Looks great already!

Ekki
Watching!

tuned in

Nice paintwork. Colors look good, I wouldn't worry that's an issue. Can always change the tone with a wash anyway. 👍

TV_scalemodels
Thanks! Yes that is very true. I think after the weathering I don't see the original colours too much..

James C
Nice progress 👍

Michael Kohl
Beautiful

Daniel
A true legend! awesome painting, the chipping is just perfectly made for this particular jet, (not an easy task, theres a thin line between realistic used look and repainting the whole thing...)

Shar Dipree
Extremly nice and awesome details (overpainted insignia for example). Excelent. I'm curious how the phantom will look like in the end.
Is there a photo that you use as a reference?

TV_scalemodels
Thanks for the comments!

Weathering was interesting, it is always difficult to balance realistic and nice looking. I'm glad you like it!

I used pics on the Internet and excellent fundecals instruction
for reference. And my books of course too.

Thanks for the links.
I think the weathering has become great. The aircrafts were partly very weathered during the war.

James C
Stunning looking F-4! 👍

I keep saying to myself that THIS will be the year that I pull my finger out and build one; but it never eventuates. This build has definitely renewed my desire to finally do it. 😉

Spanjaard
that is a great Phantom. excellent.

Bruce Huxtable
Wall to wall stencils, but your scratch building skills and eye for the painting and weathering are awesome. Wow!

Thanks for your feedback! Here is a build video if you are interested:

Weathering, chipping, dirt, grime and heat staining all done to perfection!

CaptGPF
Phenomenal build! The step by step video is instructional and very well made. Only word I can use is inspirational!
