  Hi,everybody. This is my recently done F-4 J. The a/c was assigned to the VF-84 " Jolly Rogers",June 1971, aboard the USS Roosevelt.

  I'm only building kits in 1/32, OOB. But I'm always frustrated about the accuracy of the intake section at all Tamiya F-4 kits. This is the

  only lack of the kit . The reason to buy this kit , was the reasonable price of 95 Euro at Ebay.Usually , here in Germany,I have to pay 115 Euro and more for this kit.

  After painting the entire thing with Modelmaster 1729 ( FS16440 ) for the grey and Humbrol 34 ( FS 17875 ) for the white , it got 

  a gloss clear coat , Revell #1.According to my paint comparison list the Humbrol paint was wrong, but did you see a difference

  between a white and a white ?! Whatever, after applying the decals, the a/c got his final flat clear coat ,Revell #2.

  Happy modeling ,

  Jens
