Hi gents.
This will be my first WIP here and also my first Phantom.
As you can see this is the MiG silhouette offering but I got some IDF markings from an old ESCI kit that I will use to dress this one up. I don't think or know if there are any structural or equipment differences between the one the IDF used and the one the Japanese used. If I'm wrong, please let me know.
Anyway, on to the kit.
Lots of plastic in this one.
I started with some of the sub assemblies and gave them a cote of Tamiya XF-1 Flat Black as a base and then the color over that. The colors I used were the closest equivalent of Tamiya versus the Gunze colors that was requested in the instructions. We don't get Gunze colors here.
Anyway here are some more pics. Hope you guys enjoy. More to follow soon.
