One thing I do not remember seeing is the angled air intake inlet such as what your model shows. I know the F-105 had that style of in intake, but not the Phantoms I saw. The intakes I recall were not angled and were perpendicular to that airflow thing along the fuselage (can't remember the name of it).

The F-4 Phantom is one of my favorite aircraft and since you did such a great job on the repaint, making the aircraft itself look correct would also be a good thing.

Of course, the angled intake inlet could be a modification I never heard about.

Thanks for the kind words, Ashrunner.
I just went looking over at "The Blueprint" site. It shows that the older F-4s D-E F have an angled inlet the later versions a squarer inlet.
And I just used the B&W version that's included at FG. *shrugs and smiles*
