Next up....Vintage Revell F-4E circa 1975

Next up 1975 1/32 scale Revell F-4E with literally zero detail.....looking to bring in some 3D decals, kinda pricy though at $40. Looks like sanding off seat harness/belt detail and adding new ones, maybe seat EJ handles. Might paint the pilots but they are not....well just not. I owned this model as an 8 year old, I didn't put it together, I remember buying from a 12 year old selling off his models....photos to follow

Vintage glue for a vintage kit!

Trying to add inaccurate detail, make it look a little realistic..this vintage kit nozzle attaches to a hollow engine. I kit bashed a 1/48 scale F-14 afterburner with wheels from a tank model.....

More busy work....

Well, I've found myself in an interesting spot....I wanted to build this vintage kit but in my attempts at building something vintage, vintage I've failed miserably by adding the Eduard F-4E cockpit detail set. Now I'm faced with trying to correct the kits problems in relation to my new additions.

This is pre-fitting and I still need to do some seat work but there is no instrument cowl over the rear wso's position. Do I proceed with the kit as is or do I try to fabricate things?

Gotta do what you gotta do

upgrade may not be vintage, but sure looks way better!

Built one as a kid, good times. I'm enjoying watching this one.
