This
is my 71st, 1/32nd scale Tamiya Phantom that I have
built. It started as a "J" model. Added to this were
Meteor Productions
F-4B conversion sets CEC32180 and CEC32187.
Followed by their CEC 32183 seamless intakes. All were very nicely
cast and easy to work with (if you don't mind cutting up a fairly
expensive kit). The cockpit is Combat Models (aka Black Box)
"J" interior, modified to a "B" version. I used
Combat Models RF-4 conversion set to add the long nose. Again both
sets required a lot of cutting and fitting to convert the model. The
decal sheet came from
CAM
which also provided the painting instructions. Slight weathering was
done in oils.
It
was an expensive but fun project. Number 72 is already being planned
and the acquisition is in progress. Enjoy.
