Having almost finished his RAN Sea Venom (pics to come soon) Chris has asked to start his 1/48 Hasegawa F4-J and build it alongside my 1/48 F4-EJ (Will be a RAAF F4-E). Chris has basically copied my build except for the P/E and all the other A/M products I'm using except he has a set of resin F4 ejection seats courtesy of Paul H. He has now nagged me to put pics of our builds up given Antoney's F4 and my previous 1/32 F4-E. I am doing a build review of my F4 for AMI detailing the build. Chris intend to build his F4 in Jolly Rogers scheme to match his Corsair and F14 although all different scales. Here's what were building and where we're at. All comments welcome.

Once again I've been nagged by Chris to put his Phantom on here and I had to put mine on as well with his. He has completed all the major assembly and has puttied his gaps. Me however, have been applying all the P/E to the wheel wells etc. Anyway, here's how these are looking.
