Killer E: 1/48th Monogram F-4E Phantom II

Although this 2004 kit is boxed as a 1/48th Monogram F-4E Phantom II, the plastic mold is actually the 80s Hasegawa F-4E. I built this aircraft in the markings of 68-0338 which had two MiG kill markings on the splitter plate. The victories [...]

1/48 F-4N.

This is an original 1982 issue of Hasegawa’s F-4B/N kit. As such, it features raised panel lines. Unlike the rest of their 1/48 Phantom lineup, Hasegawa never re-tooled the B/N kit with recessed panel lines. As long as they’re [...]

"And kill MiGs": Zoukei Mura F-4E Phantom

I finished Zoukei Mura's very nice 1/48 F-4E Phantom yesterday. It's a well-engineered and highly detailed kit. The only problems I encountered were self-inflicted by yours truly and his many thumbs. I'm mainly a "jet guy", [...]

Monogram 1/48 Scale F4J Phantom

I built and modified this kit back in 1990. It's been in storage for 30 years. Some pieces separated so I decided to put it back together and clean it up a bit.

Hasegawa RF-4E 1/48 Phantom II: Final Year 2020

The commemoration of the long service of the Phabolous adds another colorful dimension to the 'Sea Camouflage' attractive scheme of Japan's RF-4E. I enhanced the basic mold of the ejection seats and used DXM decals for the specialized [...]
