31 Sqn RAF RF-4 Phantom

[Brian da Basher]

Your Phantom is looking very sharp Bex! Love that R.A.F. scheme. Definitely one of the best looking ones around.

I can't wait for final roll-out!

Thanks Brian, comments like that mean alot and is much appreciated    To be honest, I think this is probably my best Phantom so far, and is my first What If Phantom and wont be my last either   My main problem is I grew up seeing green & grey Phantoms blasting skywards and I dont like grey jets but just wait and see what I do with an F4-E    

Thanks again

I agree with Bdb, it does look very sharp    There's something about it which I can't quite put my finger on but I keep going back to look at it again and again.

Same effect here, Bexy.

Blimey Gang, you lot really know how to cheer a girl up   The Squadron markings should be here Weds or Thurs so, mad decal session tonight to get the starboard wing & fuselage finished ready for their arrival, then varnish, weather, varnish job done 

Thanks again

Loving those colors Bex, really looking forward to seeing this all marked up

Final update before finish photos Gang, starboard wing & fuselage now decalled, underside of fuselage given a coat of Promodeller Dark Wash (Aka Sir Phil of Flory's Mucky Stuff). All thats left is touch up job on tyres, Squadron Markings to be applied to nose & tail and once these arrive in the post, the rescue & cockpit decals can be applied and varnished over, with a final dose of Sir Phils Mucky Stuff. So there we go, the back story is stashed away in Bexys Braincell and will be added to the final photos, and thats about it for tonight Gang.
Thanks for looking

I thought Id share a couple more photos of lastnights efforts, before I crack on and attack the canopy. Underside weathered & varnished with stores now fitted, upper wings & rear half of fuselage weathered and varnished too.

Thanks for looking
