Marius AuthorThank you for following mates, hopefully completely ready in some days. I will also make a short evaluation of this Academy kit.
The article about the VF-96 and its famous ace crew of "Showtime 100" is also mostly ready.

Michael KohlExcellent result. I lkke the dull and worn but not neglected look. The exhaust area is again very fine.

DanielTHE classic! 👍 Still my favourite navy phantom (& still missing in my collection...)
Yours is truly a phabulous example, looks just right. agree with Michael

Marius AuthorThank you all mates for the feedback, I sincerely appreciate it.
@Daniel: I was unsure about it at the beginning. I loved the scheme at the end, but the Sundowners NL201 is overall my favorite Navy Phantom.
@Michael: thank you for noticing again the exhaust area. As a matter of fact, it's not as mich effort as it seems.

Well, for me it was a hell of an effort at my Phantom. Looks like I have to work on my technique and make it a bit leaner. 🙂

Marius AuthorMaybe not of great general interest, but Randall Cunningham, part of the only US Navy ace-crew of the Vietnam War, passed away a few days ago.
