I've been working on this project for the past few weeks. Its farther along than the last photo, but I thought I'd go ahead and share what I've got so far.
AM products used: Brassin F-4B/N Wheels, True Details Martin-Baker Ejection seats, Furball-Aero Design Bravo Mig Killer Decals
Primed with Stynylrez Grey Primer
Some color added, I am using mostly MRP US Navy Insignia White for the bottom and Light Gull Grey for the top. The black on the tail and along the spine is Tamiya semi-gloss black. The heat shielding is done with Alclad Titanium as a base, with AK Xtreme Metal Duraluminum and Dark Aluminum for other areas. This was then highlighted with Alclad Jet Exhaust and Burnt Iron.
Here is one last photo after I started adding the decals. I'm going to leave this as a fairly clean aircraft with minimal weathering.
