Tamiya F-4J Phantom VMFA-451 "Warlords" WIP

[Guest DannyVM]

Update 02/02/2020

Today i did some work on the Tamiya F-4J Phantom. The person who will be the owner of the model asked me if i could build the brake-chute container in open position. This way i needed to find a solution to build in some more or less realistic container just like the real deal.

Regarding the wings, which will be folded in up-ward position, i needed to find a solution because Tamiya don't give the modeler the choice between up-ward or down position.

Just pure out of curiosity.....the FOD intake covers dry-fitted

Time to tackle the brake-chute container.......

Time to get back to the modeling table.........

Very nice work on the chute compartment Danny. The folded wings will definitely help save some space.

Thank's mate, hopefully my friend will have enough space to put it, i think that's why he asked to fold the wings.
