Made my day seeing a new video from your bench. Welcome back and look forward to your open honest and entertaining format

Had to look twice when a new vid from PMW popped up…good to see you back and great subject and colour scheme choice…my favourite too…cheers Mick

Funny how real life gets in the way of modeling. Welcome back.

Great to have you back, very much missed your videos. Keep at it, always pick up great tips from your channel.

YAY!!! You're back! Can't wait for another video.

Welcome back! Looking forward to the build. Your videos are always excellent.

Great have you back here building airplanes. Love your movies

Good to see you back in the fold 😂😂😂... My next project is the Trumpeter 1/32nd F14d

I'd love to see all of it! I love watching your channel!

Glad to see you back my friend... cheers from Argentina!

WELCOME BACK!! So good to have you back again.

Good to seeing you back in action. Looking forward to following your build 👍

Great to see you back missed all the tips and tricks, hope you stay around a little longer this time, enjoy your build

Fun-fact -- F-4Gs DIDN'T originally leave the McDonnell Douglas factory in St. Louis, MO as F-4G models. All F-4G models were CONVERTED from previously-built F-4E models. They converted close to 140 E-models to G's. Structurally, they're pretty much the same as they were as E-models -- slatted wings for greater maneuverability and to address handling issues the "solid wing" models had at higher weights, and the gun muzzle. The M61 of the E-model was removed and the muzzle opening was sealed. I think extra electronics for the SEAD mission were installed in place of the gun. The gun alone caused a stretch in the basic F-4 airframe of around 4 ft! The nose from recon models (RF-4B and RF-4C) was adapted for the F-4E to accommodate the gun in the stretch. You could install external cannons in pods to replace the removed M61 cannon (after the G-model conversion) but the gunpods create a lot of drag. I'm fairly certain the G-models were armed with Sidewinders for self-defense but their main protection (besides the jamming equipment) would have been the type's speed. The G-models were never intended to be used as dogfighters or interceptors after their conversion! I think they removed a lot of the air-to-air component electronics and replaced them with specialized air-to-ground systems specifically for searching and jamming enemy radar installations. Recon and Wild Weasel planes historically have been equipped differently from the mainline air-to-air specialist (think original F-14A, F-15A-D) and multi-role planes (F-15E, F-16 virtually all models, F/A-18A-F). The F-4 was a fraction of the cost of the later Teen Fighters and it was far cheaper to produce specialized single-mission variants (recon, Wild Weasel) of the F-4 than the later planes. The F-4 G-model was never exported to my knowledge. The jamming systems and mission-specific electronics (which were no doubt updated from time to time) were things USAF wouldn't have wanted to fall into enemy hands. The F-4G Wild Weasel served as the SEAD platform from 1978 to 1996. The F-4G was replaced in USAF service as the main SEAD platform by the F-16C Block 50/52. Right now, they're planning on supplementing those F-16s with the F-35 because of the F-35's stealth and much more advanced avionics. We'll see... budget concerns may crush those plans much like they pushed up the retirement dates for a bunch of Vietnam-era tactical planes (A-7, F-111, F-4)!

Harrier looks great! Looking forward to seeing the F-4 build out!👍

Good 2 see ya bk at the building, I’ll be getting the 1/18 harrier shortly wen i get bk of holidays, look 4ward 2 future builds

Good to see you back! Enjoy the build and looking forward to it. I have one in my stash. One of my favorite aircraft.. the F4E, J and the G WW version. Take care..

So glad that you're back. Missed your work! Looking forward to seeing how the F4 continues!

Glad to see you back. So far the Phantom looks great.

Thank you sir. YOU are the biggest reason for my entrance back into the hobby. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!! I always visit your page to see what you've uploaded. So happy to see you back and pushing out new content. 👍👍👍

FWIW, most modern U.S. military aircraft cockpits are painted in flat Dark Gull Gray, FS 36231. Many model paint companies, including Vallejo, make this color.

Yeah, I told you so..🤣 Everything looks great so far Sean- looking forward to the next video.

Your tips and how you demonstrate them such as the black gunmetal powder super glue seam filler, Testors putty filler and painting the HE 219 camouflage have been immensely helpful to my modelling and I'm sure many others. Glad to see you back at it.

the return of the king

Glad to see you back

You make GREAT videos. Always look forward to seeing them. (Your modeling skills are no joke,too) I understand,”So many models,so little time.” But I’m glad you see you back at the bench. JC : )

Great to see you back with an aircraft.

Ah, there you are 👋🏻 So glad you're back....... The Harrier looks pretty ok to me and that F4 cockpit looks great too. Really looking forward to seeing your progress 👌🏻👏🏻👍🏻 Gotta love a Phantom!

Glad your back!

So good to see you!!!

Great to see you back buckaroo!

Glad to see you're back Sean. I've completed one model this year. Don't even want to look at the work bench. Though I am starting to feel the urge to get back into it.

Don't throw that Harrier away! If nothing else, I have room on my shelf for it. 😀 Glad to see another one of your videos. My model building is infrequent at best due to health reasons, so I understand having to step away from time-to-time.

Nice your back👍

Nice to see you back

yay. welcome back 🎉

WOW,,❗️where have you been ❗️glad to see you again.

Sluuuurrrpp - good to see u back mate

Welcome back

Good to see you back. I am currently having a break from modelling. I think it is necessary. This Meng kit looks good and prices compare well with the Tamiya one. I have the Arma Hobbies Hurricane to build next. Do you fancy a go at something like that?

Welcome back 😂

That hasegawa harrier is a piece of cake! Not a terrible kit at all! Just don't follow the instructions. Build tons of them without a fuzz

Where have you been bro? Welcome back❤

wondering why i havent seen a video from you in a while

Welcome back. We all go through that period of no progress. Regarding the hidden cockpit details, what can help with that is to lighten the shades of colors used in the darker areas as well as increase the contrast on the highlights. It's a subtle thing and can be easily overdone, but it is effective. I have the F-4E version of that kit and it's on my near term to build list.

Thought about you today thinking where the hell is he!!

👍👍

I missed your Videos ! Good to see you🙂 Question: Which Markings will you use? The one from Nellis, or a Spang based One? Greetings from Germany 🙂

Hasagawie?😜 You've been on hiatus?😳 Jman

Please sip don't slurp, it's sooo common
