I have already tried to post this, with quite an in depth back story, only to be told a load of twoddle, and have my post deleted. This phantom was near completed over 15 years ago, some may remember it. I have upgraded ever so slightly, 2 seater F-16 canopy, avionics hump behind it, conformal fuel tanks avionics in the tail fin new engine nozzles, f-18 I think, an extra pair of pylons, and a 48th scale F-16 centre line fuel tank. The tank suits it perfectly and I would like to obtain some more for future phantom builds. I will put the rest of the back story in with the next phantom build. Only thing that lets it down are some of the decals, as I think they are past it even though I treated them with microsol.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Nice paint.  Did you plan it and draw it on or did you just go for it with a brush?

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed, badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry.

I just went for it with a brush, it either works or doesn't.  ;D
It certainly breaks up the shape of the phantom though.

I do like that camo ..it works beautifully 😍
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Cheers, I started building it a very long time ago too, at the very least 15 years ago.
