Luftwaffe 35th Anniversary JaboG 35

Here are some pics of my Revell of Germany F-4 F Phantom in the anniversary markings of JaboG 35 that I built a couple of years ago.

The model is built out of box. I improved it with some scratch building in the cockpit and the cockpit-frames. I also lowered the flaps/ ailerons and cut out the rudder.

The model is brush-painted with Xtracolor. Although I used these colors there is some silvering of the decals visible at certain angles of view. Weathering was done with enamels.

I enjoyed building it, although it is not as detailed as the Tamiya Phantoms. But regarding the price-level, the detailing is good enough and can be improved with scratch building.

Hope you all like it a little bit.

Happy modelling.
