Xenia V.Thanks! 🙂 As soon as I discovered this I knew I had to build a model. I'm a big fan of non-standard and experimental schemes (which is why I foresee myself building quite a number of Luftwaffe F-4Fs...😉 )

Xenia V.Thanks Ronald! I need to take pics in better light, the patching didn't show up very well in these. But I'm pretty pleased, it's definitely distinctive!

Xenia V.Thanks everyone! I figured the photos of the original might be important, not just to show that I tried to match the photo, but to show that no, this isn't a what-if.
@Holger: von mir, immer was anderes - wieder ein Phantom!😉

Xenia V.Re: the Kitsworld decals, there /are/ a couple of nitpicks I'd have - the NJ tail codes, the letters are too thick; the VF-121 text is a bit too small; the number "11" visible on the bottom side of the wingtip aren't included; and last, I *think* the national insignia are a little too small. All that said I'm not going to complain - I'm happy the set exists, at first I thought I'd have to make them myself.

Album info
This is my model of a US Navy F-4G in the short-lived green over white scheme. I used a Hasegawa F-4B kit with Kitsworld decals. In this album I also included the two photos of the original airplane that my build represents - I tried my best to match the paint patches to the photos!
