Need to repaint some areas on this one and then the weathering can take place.

Had to repaint the whole model all over again using Gunze paint (the main paint I use know), as the Humbrol colors that I previously used I no longer use and have discarded. The camo is all done, tomorrow if I get a chance I'll repaint the metal area and wheel wells.😄

Yeah Thomas, I very carefully airbrushed around the decals and extremely close to them. The decals had not been sealed by a clear coat and I did not want to risk masking over them and ripping them off. Pics soon.

Thanks Augie, I want to keep going on my other FGR.2 but my eyes are just about hanging out of my head, it's a bit after 2:00 a.m down here.

Album info
This is a Hasegawa kit in a Revell boxing. The F-4 that I'm doing is one from No. 56 Sqn, Royal Air Force, Wattisham Air Force base, England during 1992. 56 Squadron operated the Phantom FGR 2 at Wattisham until finally retiring these in 1992.
