1/48 F-4E "Kurnass 2000" from the 201 "The One" squadron.  The basic model is the Hasegawa 1/48 F-4E.  The cockpit was modified to "Kurnass 2000" standards.  All the additional parts were scratch built.

The refueling probe was scratch build using plastic rod.  The Python 3 AA missile launcher and adaptor were scratch build.  I used the Paragon design Popeye AGM missile and data link pod and the Eagle design Python 3 AA missile.
The model was painted with Humbrol enamels and weathered with water colors
and carbon chalks.  

For decals I used the Sky decal set.  The pilots are from the Hasegawa pilots and ground crew set. They were painted using Humbrol enamels. The 201 patch was hand painted.

The Hasegawa model was a really fun to build. The parts fit well and there were no problems during the building process.

Best regards,

Nissim
