  • There are a ton of aftermarket options for an F-4's J79 exhausts. But which one is the best for the Zoukei-Mura kit?
    I've tested a whole bunch of them - ResKit, Aires, GT Resin, Eduard, Mk.I. See which one prevailed.

    I went through the exact same search last year and bought all three, Reskit, Brassin, and Aires and came to the same conclusion that Eduard's Brassin is the way to go. With Reskit and Aires, I cloned the stock engine with epoxy resin and then just cut off right before the turbine section, then sanded off that ridge just before the nozzle leaves to make them fit. This way, I get a couple J79 engines outside of the aircraft for display.

    I am a bit disapointed on Reskit engine nozzles. Tamiya 1/32 F-4 nozzles looked nice but very poor fit, the cylinder is way too thick. Another set i used was for kitty hawk 1/32 F-5 and another poor fit. Now im working on Tamiya F-14A and I really can't be bothered with dealing with thse anymore, no more fucks left with these and it looks like im just gonna use the kit nozzles. I also have Reskit sets for Meng F/A-18 super hornet and kinetic F/A-18 legacy hornet that i didnt touch yet but I already have a bad feeeling about this.

      Thank you for doing that 1/32 F-4. I bought the same kit and the Reskit nozzles. They’re still on my shelf. Will probably get to it later this year.

    Why throw the GT resin exhausts away? I’d send those suckers back and get my money.

    Thank you for your search on ZM's F-4G exhausts
    Regarding the Eduard/Brassin exhausts, I would like to ask you what their code is, because I couldn't find anything related to the ZM's kit on their site

      EDU648314 - they're marked as for the ZKM F-4J, but work with the F-4S, F-4E, F-4EJ and F-4G as well.

    You mentioned the kit part having a sprue attachment point on the inside of the nozzle. Is this a case of an attachment point that wraps around the part? Lately I've had newer kits where you nip the part off the Sprue and have to turn the part 90 degrees to remove the rest of the attachment point. Really effing annoying.

    • @DoogsModels
      @DoogsModels  Год назад

      Not in this case. There's literally an X-shaped sprue inside of the nozzle.
