Building The Tamiya F-4B Phantom II Part 1 How to build the cockpit.

[@Scaleaton]

Hello guys! Thanks for watching the first episode! This will be a long term project so please no pressure :) I am planning to complete it in late of this November. As you see this is my very first video from my new studio, I hope you liked it. More videos on the way, Cheers!

[@caraguia]

Beautiful vídeo set. Nice.

[@monsieurlee]

That plastic wrap as wrinkled seat leather is a cool tip. Will have to remember that. Thanks!

[@fotomakr]

Thought the same thing.

[@jordanenebrad5250]

Great job! I spent 8 years working on the F-4B and J models in the US Marine Corps. One addition I might add is the floor boards were covered in certain places in a red phenolic like material , especially in the RIO’s cockpit. Normally the whole cockpit would be painted in FS36231, the floor board paint would be scuffed through by the crew and so some of the red phenolic would show through

[@Scaleaton]

Thanks for the information!

[@hubristicmystic]

The spun yellow and black wires was a stroke of genius, awesome work sir

[@kendowling9240]

Now that’s what modelling is about using spares and everyday items to make it look so realistic without buying after market? Amazing tips I have just learned here thank you for sharing your amazing work .

[@brianreddeman951]

Wow, I like plastic wrap texture technique. Thank you. Also, thank you for the details on the paint mixtures.

[@Dramian98]

The plastic wrap is a great idea. I use cloth medical tape for the same thing, but on both cushions. Great work! Cheers!

[@mrvertigo23]

Genius

[@navyf4s]

I totally agree with you about extra details sets. This kit has what is needed and really looks fantastic when complete. Great cockpit!

[@TheNorbica]

Fantastic job Rahmi! I really like the minimalism of not using detail sets or 3D printed parts. Back to basics what we used to do 20 years ago!

[@Scaleaton]

Thank you for your kind comment! Idd, Old school modeling is quite rare nowadays.

[@aidenchen1275]

That plastic wrap and seatbelts are amazing! I did a light color panel line wash for the dark instrumental panel and the result is satisfying, so I'd love to share it here. Looking forward to part 2!

[@Glostahdude]

I built this one like 20 years ago now…. Ya that seat was pretty intricate…. This was the first model I did completely with airbrush!

[@grafenberg53]

Inspiring work as always! Thanks for sharing the tip about plastic wrap to simulate cloth and for painting and twisting wires for the ejection seat handles.

[@danwild1946]

The cockpit looks great but those seats look amazing!! 👏

[@slimaldo1638]

Can’t believe that’s not after market. “We’ll done tamiya” agreed good sir

[@brewman467]

Nice video, background music not too loud and I like that you also show the detailed painting instructions like pressure.

[@garyfairley9807]

Brilliant build! I LOVE the ejection handles! 😎

[@Habu12]

Neat idea with the plastic wrap for seat textures, I’ll use that on my next build. For the ejection handles though, I use black and dark yellow cross stitch floss.

[@AVIOCHAHINEMODELS]

Very nice build and well explained video! I liked how you simulated the fabric effect on the seats I will for sure consider this technique in my future builds. Thanks again and keep it up!

[@tonyperez4791]

Outstanding build , Thank you for sharing !!!! Hope you have a great/safe week.

[@rgj8044]

Fantastic video! I have learned so much from your techniques and ideas!

[@jameswilliam20001]

The long wait is worth it as each time you up load video I don't miss them, it's so detail plus you share with us the tricks how to highlight area & parts. You got me as your follower.😃😃😃 J.W.

[@tomcarrington1086]

Thanks for posting this, some brilliant tips, love the finished cockpit..

[@warrenchambers4819]

Just picked this fantastic kit up the other day kinda on the pricey side but well worth it. Thoroughly enjoyed your video. I really appreciate your tips and tricks wish more modellers included those with their build vids.

[@RaduB.]

Hello Rahmi! So far so good! I was curious about this kit. Especially built by you. Thank you for the "teaser"! 😉 Looking forward to the next episode. But take your time!

[@gb373886]

Fantastic video...the seat padding technique and pull handle details are amazing. Looking forward to the next video.

[@daviddelaet8116]

The realism that can be achieved is really surprising to those that don't do modeling.

[@slipknotfan2217]

try it, it is fun

[@foreverplastickits138]

*Excellent, your cockpit is wonderful!*

[@garyparker2969]

Gotta Love The DETAILING Sir. Thanks For Sharing n Have a Blessed Week.

[@skinniestfatman5641]

Love the seat texture and the handles, might have to try that myself

Outstanding work, I wish I were only half as good as you.

[@cemaa4338]

Ellerinize sağlık Rahmi hocam. Yine çok güzel bir çalışma olmuş. Bir fantom (Phantom) hayranı olarak geri kalan çalışmayı da iple çekiyorum. Umarım bir gün Türk F4'ü de görürüz :)

[@Scaleaton]

Teşekkürler Cem Bey, bütün firmalar sözleşmiş gibi her ölçekte B, C, D ile uğraşmayı bırakıp, lütfedip Late E çıkartırsa bir gün görürüz elbet :) Antik Hasegawa kitleriyle pek uğraşmak istemiyorum doğrusu. Hayır ben uğraşır yaparım sonra Tamiya E çıkartır haftasında, aynı son yaptığım Late A Tomcat gibi :)

Hi, how are you determine what where how etc for the wires, do you use photo reference or just experience?

Butanone glue = MEK = Tamiya glue?

[@Scaleaton]

Butanone = MEK Tamiya is another story. It's not good with painted parts. MEK works like welding not gluing.

[@SuperTexasBlues]

@@Scaleaton do you use the MEK only in certain areas of the build? I always thought it to be way to hot
