Just the back side, matched to photos and the instruments on the front... I dressed up the front side a little bit, but it’s mostly the kit stuff.

I know it's a F-4J, but here's the resin pit on mine.

Got a lot of work done on the cockpit. I've added some more color to the switches in places since the dry brushing of a light grey really doesn't stand out very well in photos. Over all not much color in this cockpit. I might just decide to build this canopy closed still haven't decided yet.

I was able to get 90% of the seam work done during the zoom meeting, will be starting on the wings next.
This is going together a lot faster than I expected so far.

Thanks for looking in!

I'm sure you could do a far better job than me on this! It's been a fun change compared to propdriven fighters.

Man this thing is beautifully detailed! I do hope that they have one planned with a TISEO and slats for future release.

Thank you guys! I have ran into a sizable gap with the separate top piece with the fuel ports. It's about 1/8" short. Nothing I could have done since no spruegates or anything to remove from the ends.
