  Hello, again! I'm coming back with my second big scale F-4E, this time from Revell. The kit is good enough, but not as the Tamiya one. The overall fit and detail quality are very good but can not reach the Tamiya standards. The cockpit is considerably poorer, and so are the clear parts as well. Despite those drawbacks, no aftermarket parts were used during the construction, except for the decals, which come from Plastimodelismo. The kit was built and painted some 15 years ago, when the H.A.F. received additional Phantoms from the U.S. reserves in "Hill Grey II" camouflage scheme. The painting was done exclusively with Humbrol enamels and was quite lightly weathered, unlike my "Aegean blue" F-4E, which is considerably worn out. By the way, all those "Hill Grey II" machines are now painted in the astonishing Greek "Ghost" camouflage scheme, the one worn by the Greek falcons as well.

  Views of the cockpit area. Although the quantity and quality of detail are slightly inferior to the Tamiya kit, this one builds into a magnificent model with just a little extra work.

  Head-on view of the Phantom. "Phantom" is a greek word, meaning something like a "ghost"!
