Re: 1/48 Academy F-4J Phantom
I wanted to work on something on this evening so I did the PE on the F-4 airbrakes. The detail is a big improvement!

Well done, my now blind modelling friend! Well done.

Oooooh that’s nice work getting the PE installed! Those are a nice addition, they look great in there!

Re: 1/48 Academy F-4J Phantom
So see those triangular holes near the back Sparrow slots? I was wondering what the hell goes there. Turns out it's two small pieces. Why? Seems that this was unnecessary. Antenna go in there later.
