Now for a sheet on the 'real' rhino, the F-4 Phantom II. But of course, I am biased in this regard. This sheet has been fitted for the Hasegawa F-4 B/N and F-4S kit, however, you should be able to get things to fit on other 1/48 kits if you have them.
The first, from VMFA-212 is in their 1988 Commemorative scheme of Insignia Blue over White with a large sharkmouth on the lower radome.
The other is a standard F-4N aboard the USS Coral Sea in 1985; probably the ship's last cruise. This one is in the very easy to paint overall Gloss Light Gull Grey scheme. The area around the canopy will have to be painted to match the grey of the decals as this was an early low-viz scheme.
Insignia and basic data for both. The wing walk areas can be painted on or gleaned from an aftermarket sheet or what may come in the kit.
