Title: 1/72 F-4E Phantom II: RNLAF Tigermeet '99
Post by: Spey Phantom on June 14, 2013, 05:53:25 PM
she's been gathering dust on the bench for nearly a year and a half now, so yesterday i kinda forced myself into finishing this build, in order to clear up the workbench for bigger upcoming projects.

the kit is a 1/72 Hasegawa F-4F Phantom, decals are from a revell 1/72 F-16B.
weapons and inert pylons are from a revell F-4F.

Yes, very believable. Those markings look just right on the Phantom  :)

Very, very nice!

The Phantom would have been a natural for the Netherlands. Skip the F-5, nice as it is, and have a mixed F-104 and F-4 fleet.
