Jb65rams Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 (edited) My entry is the 1/72 Fujimi F-4K. Decals will come from the Model Alliance sheet for the Phantom FG.1. Haven't fully decided on which one but leaning towards the "Colonial Navy" version. jb Edited October 30, 2011 by Jb65rams
bexwh773 Posted May 26, 2011 Posted May 26, 2011 Superb, another Spey Phantom, the more the merrier Bexy
Lightningboy2000 Posted May 26, 2011 Posted May 26, 2011 Superb would love to have all those Fujimi Spey Phantoms & have the time to do them all. I did the F-4M and it built into a stunner. Will be watching with interest and some inspiration. Mart
Jb65rams Posted May 31, 2011 Author Posted May 31, 2011 I've made a start on the cockpit. Planning to use the Airwaves wingfold, trying to pluck up courage to take a saw to the wings.
kspriss Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 id love the bank balance to have all those Fujimi spey phantoms, lol...but no, you cant have too many RN birds steve
Jb65rams Posted June 27, 2011 Author Posted June 27, 2011 Progress to date. Finally plucked up courage to take a saw to the wings. Is the phantom a tail sitter? I forgot to put in any nose weight.
silverkite211 Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 Is the phantom a tail sitter? I forgot to put in any nose weight. I have never built any F-4 kit, in any scale, that ever needed any weight in the nose.
Pearson.J Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 AHHH, looks so nice! could you tell me the colours for the cockpit please? i have AM seats and stuff, but am searching for the kit, so i thought id make a start somewhere, but i have no instuctions yet Thanks Jamie
Jb65rams Posted June 28, 2011 Author Posted June 28, 2011 Jamie, re the cockpit colours, I am sure there are people here that know better than me but here goes. The colours called out in the instructions are I believe are Gunze Sangyo, Cockpit Tub - H317 Grey FS36231 Seat Sides - H12 Flat Black Seat - H52 Olive Drab Harness - H80 Khaki Green. Hope this helps. jb

Jb65rams Posted October 12, 2011 Author Posted October 12, 2011 I have finally found some time to progress this. The decals are from the Model Alliance, and they behaved fine. The kit decals were another story, they silvered badly. As a result I gave so a lot of the stencilling has been omitted.
Jb65rams Posted October 30, 2011 Author Posted October 30, 2011 I am calling this one finished. The decals were from the Model Alliance sheet "Senior Service Phantoms" and represents an aircraft of 892 squadron, on HMS Ark Royal in 1978.
