Thanks guys! I'm trying to finish this before the end of April for the model show here.
Not holding my breath though.

Great stuff Mike! I've just spent a happy half hour re-reading through all 44 pages of this build - It's bloody awesome.
What's the issues with the seams, was there just one you weren't happy with or did you pop one?

They're all ones that I missed. When I painted it white, it revealed all.

Re: 1/48 Academy F-4J Phantom
No not really. Nothing a little filling and sanding won't fix.........I hope.

Got some painting done. Probably should have primed the areas I fixed first.
