Hi all, 

I guess this is the section of the forum for completed non-ship model builds. If it's in the wrong section, LMK. I decided to model the last F-4 used bu the US military (Indiana ANG). The Hasegawa kit is an absolute gem, and with some added detail PE and resin builds up into a fine model.

Here's my rendition:

Thanks, guys!

   Yeah, this was built before I started doing build logs. Any future projects (ship and non-ship) will have build logs posted on the forum.

Bob, nice job with the ole TISEO Phantom. Got a few hours in them. TISEO is that tube sticking out of the left wing.

 

I don't know; my Air Guard unit took pretty good care of our Phantoms, although a long deployment could play havoc with appearances.
