F-4 Phantom

Very nice work!
Just a question : which switch did you assigned to remove before flight stripes?
Regards,
Radium
Probably switch 60 (chocks).
-
Very good shape. Two little things (In french we say : The devil hides in details ) :
-
Link beetween the sensor and the nose is vertical (It could affect the side looking if it would’nt be the case).
-
We see little antennas on the cylinder on top of the tail.
As JanHas said, best option should be to link stripes removal with chocks removal (Air intake protections and ladder as well, I guess)

Yes the chocks/ladder/rbf are switch 60, thanks Seg for the detailed photos!!! i needed them
By the wayi might drop the idea of the fixed aim-9 rails cause when you use a-g weapon such as AGM-65 for example the fins of the missile touch the rails…. but still i dont know ill see… As for the little details im still lat the start of making the G be patient…
After the photos i shared i spend another 2 hours editing the model lolPS : is ther anywhere a more detailed photo of the tail pod? Thanks in advance
-
-
The closest i can get i think…… I will do some work on the skin now! A little detail i wanted to ask. I think the -G didnt carry any weapons on front aim-7 stations beside various pods is that correct?
Edit: I think im done… any suggestions?
-
Frameless windshield anyone??? heheheheeh
-
I have some in/out pics from this frameless windshield as installed in an HAF F-4E SRA…

And how she looks in game
-
Looks nice! But I have two comments. 1. The frameless windshield is not realistic, all F-4G pics I have from early 80’s till phase out had old style frame windshields. 2. The “dice” on the nose sensor is too stretched… But again, nice model and good work!
-
Jan well check again your info… and yes i will fix the “dice” though i think i might model it like the real one witch i believe its not just paint ofcourse

I stand corrected… But I think with frame would be better since it was a far more common sight. A 80/90’s theater (Kuwait, Europe) would benefit from a framed model… but it’s your call!

Of questionable veracity, but Ravell’s 1/48 F-4G kit includes both framed and one-piece parts. The history page included claims some late 80’s airframes were upgraded to this configuration… Beautiful work, Manos!
-
AFAIK only 4 bird received this new canopy, all where the E version. Later, 1 was delivered to HAF and the rest 3 where modified to G (if I remember correctly).
-
It could help
About the loadout :
-G usually carried AN/ALQ 119 or 131 on station 4 but I’ve found an option with a sparrow on station 6.

Ill try to model the “dice” it will look cool i think. Now its time to watch football for the americans so they understand soccer. Lol.Στάλθηκε από το SM-J500F μου χρησιμοποιώντας Tapatalk

Ho yes, I forgot the superball…Have a nice watching
One point that you will have to deal with : 3 little typical antennas of the -G on each side of the nose (Part of the APR-38/47 global system)To come again on another point : Only 3 F-4G were upgraded with a one piece windshield…so.

Hmmm i have to edit the antennas on the model….
-
How that looks? I know not 100% accurate in shape but i think it ok? Mayb a little scaling to be thinner will be ok…

Now you are working on it, why not place that group (of 5 dots) right in the middle?
