Here is my Hasegawa F-4J. I had the Monogram version but once I got hooked on building Hasegawa kits I had to replace it.

You can bet that my Monogram Crusader is in line for replacement as soon as the Hasegawa kit comes out. I replaced the cockpit with the Black Box pit substituting 1 BB seat with a Verlinden so I wouldn’t have 2 identical seats. 

The kit was painted with MM paints and an enamel wash. The tail was painted with SnJ aluminum and various shades of MM metalizers. 

The decals came with the kit. She is armed with 4 AIM-9B Sidewinders, 3 AIM-7 Sparrows, 2 AGM-45 Shrikes, 12 Mk. 82 dumb bombs, and 1 ALQ-87. Hope you enjoy the article.
