I’m 53. My mentors as a young man were amazing model builders who graced the covers of Scale Modeler back in the 80s. This kinda stuff wasn’t available but this is AMAZING! What a treat and thank you for this to bring back memories. I’m a fan!

You are more than welcome my friend 🤗

[@brentbeck7984]

I have built about five or six Phantoms in the past few years and I come back to your channel frequently for the way you paint the bare metal portion of the rear fuselage. Thank you for sharing it made learning the hobby so much more enjoyable.

[@ATrainGames]

Absolutely STUNNING model! Fantastic. I especially found your initial highlight of panel lines and details PRIOR to painting fascinating, and felt that created a very good effect. Adding the additional wash afterward to further emphasize all the panel lines, in my opinion, was a little bit much. Some panels, if they have been removed from the aircraft during maintenance, will have paint separation and reason for the darkened lines. The grime from fluid leaks was done to excellent effect, though. Well played. Otherwise, it was a pleasure to watch this build. Keep up the great work!

[@icervoid]

At 17:23 you place strips: one strip, one empty interval, one strip and so on .... but you can start putting strips everywhere one after another and extract what you want for the empty intervals. ADVANTAGE: precision - the width of strip is equal with the width of the empty interval. This can be changed for non equal widths. I done this at a Tamiya 61114 Tomcat arresting hook. BEAUTIFUL JOB

So, what’s the mix, paint to clear for a wash, then the….oh hell, way too many questions. I’ll watch more and hope some sticks in the grey matter under my head. 😂😂I used to do this stuff with airfix 1/32 ww2 soldiers on a production line. Boos to helmet. That was mumble yrs ago, when I was a kid. Dad owned toy shop back then so I could get what I needed right off the cash n carry. Lol. Cracking presentation yet again. Ordered the air gun from eBay along with the worlds supply of paint, tape, glue and I stopped when my card hit £60. 🤟cheers man.

[@user-dz8uv8ks4h]

Excellent build. As for the authentication issues, A little note if I may: As a veteran of this particular squadron ("201- the one"): The Israeli F-4's stopped carrying sparrow missiles at the early 80's and at least 7 years before the new Kurnass 2000 got into service in 1988. Therefore, this model cannot represent a Kurnass 2000 aircraft, when carrying this kind of missiles. All 4 carrying points, 4,6,3,7 - have been modified to carry some other stuff, like suu-25 on points 3,7 (rear points) or ALQ-119 pod on point 4 (left fwd). Besides that - amazing building and painting job. David

Great work! I just started building a 1/32 Tamiya F-4. I have one question. It looks like once you snap the canopies into place they can swivel up or down in the open or closed position. Is this correct? The instructions aren’t very clear on that. Thanks

[@PerisModels]

It's only because I was going to post it so I didnt want them to break I had to add pins to the actuators so i can put them on or off

Καλησπέρα. Θα ήθελα να ρωτήσω σχετικά με το washer που χρησιμοποιούμε για τις ρωγμές των αεροσκαφών. Θα πρέπει να είναι ανοιχτής και σκούρας απόχρωσης για ανοιχτά και σκούρα χρώματα αντίστοιχα ή μπορούμε να χρησιμοποιούμε ένα απλό μαύρο washer;

[@OnKeyboards]

Superb work quality and correct scheme (squadron , number etc). I would recommend a different loadout. This one is kinda mid 70s era, but this is an F-4 2000,

[@PerisModels]

Thank you my friend What loadout would you suggest?

[@OnKeyboards]

@@PerisModels Okay, will try. This loadout was typical for real operations with the 201 squadron. Like other operational loadouts, it was asymmetric and the plane really looked armed to the teeth. Inner wing stations- GBU-15 (dark green, fins in light green). There were two fin configurations. This is the type with big fins. See wikipedia. Outer right wing station- GBU-15 communication pod. Outer left wing station - a drop tank. Left forward sparrow station- an ALQ-119 pod. Usually dirty off-white. Right forward sparrow station - an AIM-9D on a special long adapter that the IAF developed (there are rare photos of this). Two rear sparrow stations- not used. The inner wing pylons also have flare dispatchers. Chaff dispensers are integrated into the plane's lower rear fuselage.
