RF-4B Phantom
Hasegawa 1/48 almost straight from the box. Will be my first in flight model.
1December 26, 2020Some pre-shading with brown and then using Gunze H316 White FS 17875. This white turned out more ivory. When I opened the bottle the solvent was really brown and when mixed it was an ivory color. Not sure if it is supposed to be like this.
2December 26, 2020All done and looking creamy.
3December 26, 2020As in my opinion it looked to creamy I misted some XF1 white over it. Looks better to me. IRL the H316 still is visible giving it more depth.
4December 26, 2020Topside with a dark gray pre-shading. Next Gunze H315 Gray FS 16440.

Super phantom! Great work with metal areas. The in flight postion is the real shape of the planes. I choose this way every time. ????

Thx mates.
@Thomas, this kit came out circa 2005 and has engraved panel lines. Except for the stabilizers, they have raised panel lines. Go figure.
