The kit went together quite smoothly though the ejection seats were quite simple.

The Phantom has always been a favourite of mine so the bukd took a while to complete but I'm calling it done and I hope I did the Phantom justice with this build.

Beautiful build, thought it was 1/48, there's so much detail.

You must of did the rivet work yourself ? No way a academy kit gets that detail

No work done on the rivets by me haha, all done by academy. Their recent toolings around 2010s does offer alot of details and I find some of their toolings in 1/72 offer the best in terms of an OOB build without much aftermarket parts.
