Right you lot. How do you guys pick the next kit to build? I usually already have something I want to build before I've finished the previous one. I've got way too many on the go at the moment (9 I think) so I don't want to start anything before I clear a few of the WIP's out. Here's my problem. Whilst measuring the cabinet for a 1/48 F-15Erecently, I have discovered that I can fit 3 x 1/48 F-4's per shelf in my cabinet where previously I thought I couldn't (<----- can't read tape measure properly apparently). Now it might surprise you I have a large collection for 1/48 F-4's but I'm having trouble picking 1 to build. Any suggestions?

Dunno about any Phantoms, but I have an Aztec I can send you..

I know this sounds silly, but most of the time the kit picks me!!!
Be it through reading, or watching something on TV, my interest will be triggered and "bang" another kit started (and inevitably heading for the "curtain rail of doom" at some stage).
So walk in to your "man cave", model room, or whatever, play around with the kits you have in your stash, and let your next model project pick you

Yup Ray that happens to me as well.....god knowscwhat will choose me next.

Thanks Damo. As helpful as ever ain't ya Sounds fair boys. I've gotta get some others done before I start anymore. I had actually picked the F-15E after Paul made me watch heaps of Mach Loop videos on Youtube. Then I measured the cabinet for space and boom, the F-15 was forgotten and the F-4 was chosen. I think it's a toss up, at this stage between the following 2 though I maybe swaying towards the orange F-4F



and



I want to do this one too but it'll be a while off till I master weathering on jets

I'll definitely won't be doing this one anytime soon though it'd piss off those that say you can't see panel lines on a real aircraft


But how bout this for gorgeous

Is it too late to suggest a Tracor Flight Systems F-4???, or what about a WIF NASA F-4 in the blue/white scheme.

PS: the orange F-4 is pretty "kick arse"!!

you cant see the panel lines....they're covered in bog

But how bout this for gorgeous

i do like this one and the other Japanese one....but the orange one is kick arse.

maybe i can find phantoms on the mach loop?

I think I have all the pics I need for decals for the Tracor F-4D but I'll need to get them done by someone. I'm leaning towards the orange F-4F mainly due to the lack of stencils compared to the blue F-4EJ
