Modelers:

Model of the great Yoav Hozmi based on Maly Modelarz. I also dared and made some changes. I decked it out in USAF Europe insignia, armed it with a couple of laser-guided bombs, scratched it out the Pave Spike target designator, wired ascent ladder, and dust intake shields for the air intakes with paper and paperboard. Some things I painted with acrylics. The assembly of the fuselage quite complex. Scale, 1:40. I hope you like it. Yoav, Thank you very much!

Wow! That's beautiful. You've done a great job on a model of one of my favorite planes. Thanks for sharing!

I see the pitot tube right where it's supposed to be!

Nice work Dave. Always impressive to see a Phantom model.

Why the 1/40 scale?

Isaac, thank you very much. The 1:40 scale is given by reducing Yoav's plans to 76%. 1:30 too big for the space I have, 1:50 or 1:72 I was afraid they would be too hard to model on 180 gram paper. My F-4EJ and F-4S are the same scale, so I think they'll look good together.
