Donald Dickson II Slavo, I feel like you would do a killer job on it making mine look amateurish.

Casey Rupley Thanks, Slavo! I agree with Donald, you would crush it and I would love to see what you could do, but trust your gut and save yourself the pain. Wait for someone to build a respectable 1/48 or 1/72 scale version of this beast. Come on, Tamiya!!!

Donald Dickson II Casey, THIS would have been a much more needed and welcomed kit from Tamiya rather than that F-4.

Casey Rupley Agree! I've heard that kit is a dream to build, but I'm not in the market for another F-4 at the moment. Oh well, we continue our wait.

Jorge Avila From what I understand, doesn't the company that makes the kit need some sort of license from Rockwell (or in this case, Boeing)? I'm sure there is some sort of licensing involved and may be too expensive for some other company (like Tamiya) to create their own. Although, that would be awesome!
Spanjaard it is a question of what you enjoy and what you want to do. some will go to extreme detailing, and finish the model (whatever it takes may not matter) and others will go to OOB without any extra detail. what matters is that it makes you happy 😉 even if you never finish, if it makes you happy making half models, then ... be happy 🙂

Jorge Avila Casey, can't wait to see your past project. Gary and Spanjaard, thank you for your words of inspiration. This is my third build with all the "latest" accessories and tools. I built several models as a teenager back 30 years ago and rediscovered this love just recently. So far, it has been frustrating but fun learning about PE, airbrushing and resin parts (to say the least) so it is safe to say, let the modelling continue!

Flight Line Media Impressive work! I'll follow along with your build.
