I'm converting the F-4F Revell kit into an F-4EJ Kai. I'll be using the Platz decal sheet for the 30th anniversary scheme for the 350th TFS of the JASDF.

Hi Michael,

My build thread is at:

britmodeller.com/for...php?showtopic=77880

The conversion is not difficult. You need to add two blisters at the top of the vertical tail, change the wing tips to non-slatted but with the RWR sensors, and add slotted horizontal stabilizers. Plus a bunch of antennae.

Cheers,
Bill

Thanks. I sanded it down until it fit and made some other modifications. There are photos and an explanation in the build thread posted above.
