New hi tech F-4 model
This is the latest and greatest hi- tech model of the F-4, a rivet counter’s dream,it’s very accurate, goes together easily, requiring no filling of seams, minimum flash, instruction’s are easy to follow and an excellent decal sheet. highly recommended.

Scale? I can only consider if 1/72…this appears a bit smaller if compared to the wood grain of your table! How much aftermarket products are available?
Robert Royes said on October 28, 2016
Scale? about 1/250, It’s still too new for aftermarket stuff.

The canopy looks a bit wrong to me

….and the dihedral is waaaaay too exaggerated – 🙁

It’s the wheels that need attention….

Well I have just witnessed my first gear down wheels off landing of the Dymestore F-4 Phantom!! Robert I am impressed with your skills as a pilot. I have flown the “Dyme F-4” many years ago and found it to be one of the most robust aircraft in my fleet. Once it was attacked by a type Tyke. Tyke was my dog. After a rinse and a few structural manipulations it continued it’s service for many years.
And.. Thanks for posting. I needed that after a long week.

Has your son left home yet? If he has how did you engineer that feat please? We have two in their mid twenties and our retirement plans didn’t allow for this eventuality!
Oh, nice F-4J too. Colour scheme looks a tad suss but…is it an FGR.1 that the Poms used? 🙂 🙂 🙂

I love the new markings! They should have used that style before.
Jeff Bailey said on February 27, 2017
Where did they come up with that awesome canopy? You did a great job of masking!
Robert Royes said on February 28, 2017
It’s a new style..

The canopy plastic is so clear it looks like nothing is there.
