Milviz F-4E Phantom II

You can fill up an entire drive with just the German special paints they did for the Phantom over the last fifty years, the last one being one of my favourites:

 
Now is to wait for the release ...

Looking at recent current works .. I thought best to start in the lessor known department .. maybe a little more simple for starters.

@ baernhard .. fan damn diddly fantastic :encouragement:

@ odourboy , I'll still have a drawing i did in black ball point pen .. many moon ago ( 35 years back ) and off this livery :adoration:
 
That VF84 paint is coming along great Brian... not a lot left to do there. The black anti glare bit should only be on the windscreen section and the slime lights don't want to be there because it was a J and not an S model... and the green wants to come of the tank texture. Other than that its pretty much good to go isn't it?. I notice on Milviz' facebook page they have updated the paint kit to make it easier to omit the slim lights.

Thanks for pointing that out Matt. MilViz states: "I've just now updated the MV F-4E paint kit to allow for no slats and no slimers... feel free to use it..."

Can someone in the know please explain how I might get rid of the slimers in the new paint kit? Not at all obvious to me. I've already invested several hours trying to align the Jolly Roger with the slime light surround on the tail section (not easy -angled, scaled, flipped... yikes!) and getting rid of the slime all together would, I presume, make life easier!
 
Sorry Brian wish I could help...hopefully someone will have the answer for you.

Couple of other things I noticed on the photo of this VF 84 aircraft... there is a series of white stars on the rudder (never noticed that before) and it looks like crew names are contained in a yellow rectangle on the lower half of canopy frames (something made up would do for the names in the absence of accurate info.)

odourboy, where did you find the updated paint kit? The only one I can find is the original posted in the news section by Krazycolin.
 
Hi Tom

Redownload from the same place. The link hasn't changed.

As for the slimes appearing, they are still in the model. They will be removed on release so for now don't worry about them. Just paint as though they aren't there.
