Warlord Phantoms: 1/48th ESCI F-4J Phantom II

October 11, 2024 · in Aviation · · 9 · 76

Seeing as a few of you commented on this F-4J Warlord Phantom in the background of my last post I thought I would feature it here as well. The old ESCI/ERTL Phantoms do have some nice qualities about them, nicely scribed surface details and a correct shape however the cockpit is a comparative disaster with poor fitting panels, decals for instruments (which aren't even correct) and ejection seats that don't come close to the real thing. (So you have some work ahead of you with this build.)

You can see more in-depth detail of this build with additional photos at: https://www.flypastrush.com/post/phabulous-warlord-phantoms-1-48th-esci-f-4j-phantom-ii

Thanks for looking & good luck on your next build.
