RF-4B Phantom

Album image #1
Some pre-shading with brown and then using Gunze H316 White FS17875. 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. 
 

Album image #2
All done and looking creamy. 
 

Album image #3
As 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.

Topside with a dark gray pre-shading. Next Gunze H315 Gray FS16440

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

Great job on this Phantom. Love the paintjob - is this the kit with the raised panels?

Hats off to you mate for a lovely Spook!

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.
