1/32 Fisher F4D Skyray

This is Fisher Model’s 1/32 Skyray OOB. I love building Fisher kits, as they are almost like building an injection molded kit, even though they’re resin kits. This one was a bit trickier than most Fisher kits. The intakes didn’t seem to fit and there were gaps between the intakes and the fuselage. However, a little epoxy putty and all was solved. Overall, it’s a beautiful kit. I don’t know how Paul Fisher does it!

Another very nice build Darren.

What’s the weight of a model like that in resin? Must be fairly hefty.

It definitely has some heft to it. I was very concerned about the landing gear, as they are all in resin. The front gear especially seems fragile, but it has held up…even when I dropped it!

Cool !! A 1/32 model with landing gear that can take the in-scale stress of a landing.

That is another very nice build, Darren. You must be enjoying the fairly recent explosion of 1/32 Navair subjects that aren’t Phantoms or Tomcats? (back in the day, F-4 and F-14 were the only Navair kits in the scale)

Always fun when you post another finished model.

I bet your heart skipped a beat when you dropped it!!! Good to see it was unscathed.

Naval aircraft are supposed to take that kind of abuse. Glad to see the kit manufacturer replicated it well! Very nice!
