Guy's Eduard 1/48th F-4C Good evening Da Nang

Calling this one done.
It was a fun build but the PE was hard to get right as it was the first time I used PE
Resin was OK. Not that hard to handle.
Used MrHobby acrylics, some Tamiya and some Revell Acrylics. X-22 gloss coating and Tamiya panel line wash. Overall a wash of Ultimate light and dark dirt
Anyway here are some of my pictures, taken by my phone so not that great quality. In reality it looks not that bad

















And finally at the place it deserves...



Thanks to all of you joining in and congrats to all who've finished. I really enjoyed watching all builds last 4 months.

Hey Guy, well done for finishin. I really like her, good string camo colours. Hopefully get mine done this week (hopefully) What else have you got in the cabinet mate?

Ehrm well... 9 F-4's , Harrier, Aircraft Carrier, King George, F-5, F-14, Lancaster, Eurofighter which I'll never ever will build as I don't like the jet , B-17G, Jaguar jet, and some other stuff ...
Try to get the Stuka finished this week.
And started the 1/72 Academy Tomcat after these three group builds I did (F-4, SU and Stuka) the last five months, I wanted to do something easy - no stress.
On may first Darren, Scott and myself will start building our Tamiya 1/48 Skyraider as a kind of little buddy build.

The things I've learned by doing these group builds are
- they cause stress when nearing the deadline. I don't like stress when building models. I start to rush things and thus ruining previous work on that model. It has to be fun.
- They can drain your mojo. Deadline thing again
- I'm a slow builder so 3 months is way too short for me. There are days I don't feel like building and so it is even slower...
- I need to select group builds, sigs, etc...carefuly. Not participating in all of them and just watch other people progress is OK also

And now : Quite some kits in the stash and no idea what to build next After the Skyraider I will start building another Phantom ...
... or one of the ships I have
... or some kit I don't have in the stash now but might be in it by the end of may (my birthday month)
