Construction Guidance and Display Ideas

Yes, decals are supplied to represent authentic F-4 markings; applying a gloss coat before decals and a satin or matt finish afterwards helps seal and blend them.
Aftermarket resin seats, seatbelts and photoetched sets are available from third parties for modellers looking for extra finesse.
Fine brushwork, light washes, and subtle drybrushing bring out panel detail without overpowering the 1/48 scale proportions.
