Instructional time lapse video of the full-build, paint and weathering of the 1/48 scale McDonnell Douglas F-4J Phantom II "Rockin' Rhino Limited Edition by Eduard as shown by The Inner Nerd
The first part of this video shows the use of Photo etch parts and scratch building techniques to detail hydraulic pipes and electrical cables professionally and cheaply around both the cockpit and wheel bays.
The second part shows surface preparation techniques such as filling panel gaps and seams with modelling filler and sanding them smooth to get a seamless join between parts. Also basing techniques are included in this section using Mr Hobby "Mr Surfacer 1200 & 1500" to prime the surface ready for painting.
The third part of the video demonstrates the black-basing technique used to achieve a pre-weathered look and surface texture replicating that of an aged and worn aircraft. Harder & Steenbeck Evolution Silverline is used at an operating pressure of 15PSI and a 0.15mm needle + nozzle during this process. Salt weathering is also used detailing how to create a worn look on specific areas of the model. Also included in this section is the jet exhaust painting using Alclad 2 Lacquers and Tamiya clear paints to create a burnt metal effect
Decals follow painting with the aid of Mr Hobby Mr Mark Setter & Softer products. These products allow the decal to form to the shapes and panel lines of the surface which you can see in the video.
After this the machine polish process is shown to remove the "orange peel" effect from the clear coat. This is done using Tamiya sanding sponges in 2000 & 3000 dpi grit and Tamiya Polishing Compounds.
Next is the weathering of the model. This is started using Abteilung 502 oil paints thinned to a wash consistency. Then used as panel line wash the oil is applied across the model to achieve a dirty, grimey & worn look. Further weathering including unthinned Abteilung 502 oil paints to create streaking and water marks concludes weathering
The final part of the video explains the final assembly of small parts including landing gear, lights, antennas and canopy fitment as the model nears completion. All final assembly is completed with CA superglue.
Items Used Airbrush: Harder & Steenbeck Evolution Silverline Needle/Nozzle: 0.15mm
Compressor: Badger 1100 with Anti-Pulsation Tank Working Pressure 22psi (1.51bar)
Paint: Tamiya Acrylics thinned with Tamiya X-20A Thinner Brushes: Pure Sable Brush - Various Sizes
Glue: Tamiya Extra Thin Cement/Loctite 406 Superglue
Sanding: 3M 600p / 800p / 1200p / 2000p / 3000p sheets & sponges

Then phantom, for me one the coolest planes ever. Your build is fantastic, absolutely great 👍 i love it
Museum grade build... no higher complement is possible!! Thanks for putting this up!!
CMDR. Dean Cramer...flew 397 missions over North Viet Nam..awared 5 DFC's...45 Air Medals...passed away 10/15/2010..age 79...so this is an incredible work of Honor to this naval Aviator...Hope His Family and His Friends see this video...just an amazing piece of art....
With all those intricate parts it's almost equivalent to building a ship in a bottle. Nice job, great patience.
Beautiful work my friend it's a big thumbs up from me take care my friend
Wow! I can't believe how good you are! Awesome! Great work! Little details makes it so real!
Your models are just perfection !
Wow. That's some first rate painting.
What can i say - an absolute masterclass, stunning. An inspiration to keep improving my own skills.
Excellent work and a fantastic result!
Great work. Reminds me of how I used to paint my models (but not as good or detailed as you have shown) when I was a kid (mid 70s). The F4, P51 and P47 were my favorite models back in the day. I liked making jeeps, tanks and ground stuff like that for the most part because it was fun dirtying them up with mixed paints and creating dioramas for them. I remember using a candle to create entry points for shells on tanks. That was fun. Just had to add this, I remember the F4 was tail heavy and P47 was nose heavy. I used slip weights from my tackle box to balance the planes so that they'd sit on all wheels.
This is the greatest representation of my favorite aircraft when I was a boy, I have ever seen. The level of detail is extraordinary. It looks so realistic its unreal . Very well done. 👍
Really nice build. I especially like the salt technique for Naval aircraft on Carriers. Thank you for sharing!
Awesome work!
16 thumbs down????
People are jealous!
that is a beautiful build. I could watch your videos all night long
Sensational! It doesn't get any better than that, no doubt about it.
Beautiful job. I'll refer back to this video from time to time. Regards, Solomon
Fantastic work Sir! Everytime i watch your video i learned a new trick from you
Your build vids are the best and most pleasant for the eyes....
Great instruction video on how to use modern techniques,thanks!
6.04 in the UK. This is a real pre-work treat. Beautifully done my friend.
Hi,
Finally managed to get this kit, and just hope I can build mine and weather it just as good as yours.
Thanks for sharing your work
Jase🇬🇧
Hello and thanks for watching.
You've done well to find this kit since it's a limited edition! I hope the video comes in useful but of you want to wait a few more weeks I'm currently building this one again but in different markings. I'm going to include the build up too which may come in useful 🙂
Defo, I’m in no rush. 👍🏻
Absolutely stunning, I’m a massive fan, your paint work is stunning, and having seen many photos of this aircraft, and builds, your weathering is spot on, and makes it look real and not a piece of plastic.
Jason🇬🇧
Very well done! Congratulations!
Nothing more relaxing than building and completing an iconic model...warbirds are especially challenging!!!!.....Great work!!!!..🐦
absolutely amazing,,,,,,total perfection
This is your best yet bud beautiful work as always ☺🍺🍻
Once again brilliant. Bravo
Thanks
I worked on F-4J's until 84 when we swapped for F-18's. Loved serving with VMFA-451 THX.
Ohhhh! Can i pick your brain? I have a question about the wingtips. I have the academy version of this, and it has some blank panels on the bottom, but im sure they should be on top? Is this correct?
Absolutely stunning!!!
Good job! Great choice for music as well
Looks absolutely amazing
Very nice model good job dude 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👏👏👏
Absolutely stunning! I just wish that you done the canopies open.
You are blessed with amazing talent my friend, I can only dream that I had half your skill !!!
Jaw dropping work! Build, paintwork, and weathering are top notch. Just wish there was an aircrew to go in the cockpit. Keep having fun. Bill
PanzermansBunker There is a crew in the box. Decided not to put them in though, wantes it in a parked position
Great model
Stay. On this level
Stunning work nerd! One of your best so far, and I mean it ! ;)
Fantastic job!
Amazing work!
Artistry! I am hoping this maybe made its way into a friendly diorama? Anyways, its videos like these that keep pushing me back to modelmaking. Keep up the outstanding work!
Beautiful , great job !
That is a spectacular job
Incredibly beautifull build Thanks for sharing
an amazing job! I might have to get back into building models again....
WOW that's an amazing build. I watch this video over and over just to watch the work and awesome details you put into this beautiful F-4. The Phantom is my all time favorite aircraft I have built many and will always enjoy the next phantoms I build.
Just beautiful.
Amazing!!!
Hi IN, bought this kit (was extremely hard to get and expensive now) after seeing this video. It's in my loft for now until I'm confident enough I can do it justice like your version. Im only just getting back into the craft after many years away and basically learning from scratch with new products and techniques etc, your vids are much appreciated for gathering tips and techniques and can only say thanks for sharing your work.
I put together a model F-4 while I was in NAOCS (class 12-69) and my Marine DI gave me a lot of shit about it being a less than perfect build. I have a new kit now, but I've not opened the box in years. I blame it on him, sorta.
Excellent!
10/10 on that one Mate!!
Incredible paint job!
Good work! Bravo!
Fantastic Work ... absolutely nice Job ....its Just a Beauty ;)
Great job!
An absolute work of art!
This is not simply beautiful.
Is art.
So detailed and correct you can search for defects and never find.
You may look to that every time and feel no fatigue.
icervoid I
Astonishing!
I´m more in to cars, but you my friend are awesome.
Car Dreams in Styrene Going to try a car kit at some point! Improving my skills each time so I can tackle a car of some kind
For me it is imported to look out of my box and learn....and you are a great teacher if someone is ready to learn..keep on building...
Your builds just keep getting better! Fantastic result, I really enjoyed this video!
Keep up the good work!
Thanks
My comment was not to deprecate your fine work, I was just relating that our aircraft were never as weathered as I see being depicted on 60-70’s era jets. The squadron commanding officer of VMFA-451was a stickler for keeping the aircraft in good shape, so we washed them often. Keep up the good work!
Smashing work, i love it :)
Great video.. very impressive.
Wow, Just Wow!
Never saw an f-4 with a blue canopy and front. Must be an air show model. What a job though!!
Thank you. I'm not sure if this is a display aircraft only as it is part of VMFA 451 from USS Constellation which suggests it is an actor service aircraft. I picked it because it was the coolest looking scheme from the kit 👌 Thanks for watching
A little pepper and a fresh squeeze of lemon and you got yourself one hell of a meal there.
Mmmm. Salted Phantom
saw this and then some videos over a year, your improvment is amazing !
Masterpiece!
Very impressive
wonderful, amazing paint finish
really like how your kit came out. very nice. dont know how someone could give this a thumbs down..
AverageModeler Thanks! Keyboard warriors I suspect, I always get a few... It's a lot harder to produce 100% accuracy by actually making something rather than sitting watching it being made
yeah i hear you on that. i build too and i often have to work with only whats in the kit. after market parts can sometimes cost just as much as much as the kit. but some of these kits are not accurate and we often follow instructions.. people are sometimes retarded.. lol..
Un formidable trabajo, una clase magistral de modelismo. Un saludo desde Madrid, te sigo por tu página.
a true artisan, thanks for sharing.
Just great, excellent, CONGRATULATIONS! Extrra well done ☻
superbe..trés instructif pour moi qui suis novice.. merci beaucoup..
Dude I really love your production efforts...your skill is evident...and you are doing a superb job on these videos.
Realy amazing!
Your masterpiece my friend
amazing! man, polishing the x-22 with the drill was realy hardcore, looks more like the automotive modelers, I would recomend just use aqua gloss from alclad ll for this task, it dries super thin, do no orange peel at all, one good trick is go buffing the paint with some glass cleaner cloth to smoth it before the clear coat (if you buff enogh you can even do the decals on top of it skiping some steps) wonderful Phantom! brilhant weathering!
cesar muniz Alright thanks! I have seen Aqua Gloss used before and want to try some. Find it difficult to get a good quality acrylic based clear coat.
sehr schön !!
Such an impressive job. I used to build models but no where near this good. Definitely subbing your channel.
looks better than real aircraft
Very inspiring! I went out and bought a Su 33 after your sea flanker video... Now I think I'll be doing an F-4 as well. I really enjoy your content mate, keep up the great work.
Simply (insert expletive here) remarkable! Thanks so much. I'm going to be doing one of Col. Field McConnell's F4s in the future, thus your guide is of tremendous help!
Amazing dude.
Served with VMFA 451 in the early 80's. The air craft were not quite as dirty. Great build of this classic phamtom. THANX
Beautiful Phantom - and very nice patina on it. LOVE IT !! Precision work!
Very nice build.
Great build bro!! I was following on instagram and I'm sorry that the tail decals got messed up. But still, killer build!! Thanks for the video!!
RU Потрясающая работа , продолжайте делать ваши модели.
Awesome work, keep doing your models. salt sighting was well shown
Good, weathered nicely although let down by bright bold decals which should be weathered to match - keep up the good work.
The Hi-Vis '00' A/C especially the CAG bird will have Hi-Vis markings meaning they won't let them get weathered. They will most times be glossy. Even the beat up old F-4Js were still going into the 80s and each Squadron CO Bird would be Hi-Vis, its called polishing a turd. Have a look at the historical pictures, he did a spot on job.
Sorry, I have to disagree. Yes they were hi-viz schemes and the boss's bird would of got more attention generally than others, but they would not of been as bold as represented on this build
Parabéns ,um òtimo trabalho ,ficou chique,saúde e paz

@ '
really loved this
Nice. Captured the grimy look of these machines.
Totally incredible so amazing job on this video too..thank you so much
Awesome!!
The end product is so nice, that all the work that goes into it almost makes it look like it's no fun to build.
But we know better! If it wasn't fun, we wouldn't do it.
I don't usually comment, but this was so inspirational! Great choice of music too!
Nice work mate, I am an armour modeller but currently making a 1/32 Tempest.
Beautiful work! Wow! :D
