1/72 Hasegawa F4 Phantoms

Gallery Article by David Rapasi on Jan 21 2009

 

These five Phantom models were built over 30 years ago in the late 1970s.

All five aircraft models were built starting with the same 1/72nd Hasegawa F4-E kit.

The noses and leading edge slats were constructed from home made vacuum formed parts. The seats were constructed from home made five piece lead castings. Various other parts were scratch built.

All of the models were painted with Pactra flat paints that were mixed to match Federal Standard Paint Chips.

MicroScale decals were used on all of the models.
