This came from an old hasegawa offering, kit no SP51 ..plastic was from blue mould, a little brittle at times but I guess it turned out well with the kit decals. I Present : F-4J Phantom 'Blue Angels' in 1/72 scale.

Very nice Johan.
I understand that you have a tough time with the decal since the opacity is the main problem. But you did well. How's the Hasegawa kit? Pakcik' S |

Thanks Jackson for the "Like"
Hey Bud .. Yup, the decals were ancient old but was lucky enough it was sealed within all these time, turned out well..somehow. The kit? Well...standard hasegawa offerings but major parts mould in blue plastic which isn't my favorite ..can be brittle as I found out on a different kit. Overall, it took a little more effort to get it almost right. |

Hey...thanks for the kind words. Trying my next aerobatic aircraft, Bae Hawk 'Red Arrows' in 48 scale. At present, it's primed and ready for the next stage. |
