added, and then they were suitably
weathered. The included Brassin
resin wheels are very well detailed
and were painted with a Tyre Black,
and then masked-off, and then
Hataka White was added to the
hubs. I then added a Black wash
around all the raised details, before
adding a touch of weathering to
the tyres. The two
Martin Baker GRU-7
ejector seats are again
Brassin resin items,
with etched harnesses.
I then used Hataka
Blue Line Paints to add
all the small details
to the seats. The last
thing to be painted
and detailed were the
canopies. The final
stage was to put allthe assemblies together, and with
that, my Phantom was done. I
cannot recommend Hataka paints
highly enough, and once you get
the hang of spraying them you will
not stop using them. I have never
found a brand of paint that can take
as much handling and punishment
as these do without showing wear!Oil paint dots added to the
weathered effect.........and these were again blended in.........for the final look
Just before we went to press this model won
Alan a Gold at IPMS Ireland Nationals....and lower surfacesA panel line wash was used on the
upper and lower surfaces.........and blended in, after the plethora of decals had been added92 • NOVEMBER 2017 • SCALE AVIATION MODELLER INTERNATIONAL
