Kaireckstadt Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Before I start with my Tornado I want to show you some pics of my Tamiya F-16 Fighting Falcon. I build this kit OOB except an Aires bangseat and lots of scratchbuilding. Gunze Colors were used for the painting. Handpainting the cockpit is a challenge but made a lot of fun. That‘s all regarding the F-16. Will complete the Mirage III diorama and then move on to the Tornado. 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GusMac Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Great build Kai. It's a great kit - I built mine as an IDF bird but not as colourful as your Mirage! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaireckstadt Posted September 11, 2021 Author Share Posted September 11, 2021 Thank you for your nice feedback Gus. Do you have a picture of yours or did you post an article here? You know I love the IDF camouflage and I‘m very curious to see yours! BTW: How about Your Cheetah? Can’t wait to see her finished… 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterpools Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Kai Awesome Viper - perfect build. I built the same Viper a number of years ago on LSP and an amazing kit. I couldn't find any pics, so I did a search for it on LSP for an image to post. Not in the same league as yours and sorry for the image quality. Keep 'em comin Peter 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Clunkmeister Posted September 13, 2021 Administrators Share Posted September 13, 2021 A flawless build, and unlike the majority of us mere mortals who load on the Aires to show our extreme laziness towards scratchbuilding, (yep, that’s me, I only do it when needed, and look for the easiest way) you took what was there and kitted it out to perfection. Bravo! I have three Vipers in the stash now, one Tamiya, and a couple Academy two holers. I’m scared of jets, lol, and I know I won’t achieve these kinds of results. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yours is absolutely in the same league Peter. Don’t underestimate your builds! Thank you Ernie. I‘m already old so I was obliged to learn scratchbuilding because no resin parts existed… 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
