Yeah I've already put the flat down after the last coat of gloss didn't fix the issue I added a pin wash and flat coat.

Clint despite what you mentioned it still looks really good.
If I may mention one other thing. The stars and bars on the upper wing is upside down

Yeah I'm doing the 1/72 Broncos with AOA decals which have every single data decal as separate. Did round one last night

Thank you John, I'm really not happy with the decals but love the kit. You're right I got the star flipped, I didn't even notice.

The finished Phantom
A great kit that was a lot easier to put together than what I was thinking it was going to be. I say go buy this kit now if you ever wanted a Phantom!
I just wish all the decals would of played nice, this being my first modern jet build I'm extremely happy with the outcome.
Thanks for looking in!
Skol!

That turned out to be a real beauty Clint, decal problems notwithstanding. Your first modern jet looks quite nice.

Man that looks awesome!!! Sucks to hear about the decals. Guess it needs some aftermarket ones.

Thank you Carlos and Mike. The decals are by cartograf and in the past I've never had problems with decals printed by them.

Oh wow. That is odd. Never heard of a problem with Cartograf.

Yes there is! This is what I added on my 1/32 F-4G
Gonna try to replicate this on my 1/72 scale British Phantom...
