My latest Kit is a F-4E Phantom II from Hasegawa in scale 1:72.

I built it within 2 months. I used the Hasegawa kit and some parts from the after market, like the CMK Cockpit set, the CMK Nozzle and some etched parts for the Cockpit, the landing gear, arresting hook and the canopies. For the markings I chose a Phantom of the 526th TFS "Black Knights"/86th TFW from Ramstein Air Base. 

I decided for the SEA all around camoflage which was used only a few years from about 1980 to 1984. Decals are from AirDoc, that included the stencils, too. I use Gunze colors for the SEA camoflage.
