Daywalker Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Hello all! I just finished these two up this afternoon, Hasegawa's F-16 Egg Planes. I used the decal sheet specific to these kits for the markings on both. The shark mouthed one is from the 74th FS, and the "How's My Driving?" one is from the 2000-2001 USAF recruitment commercial. This one was built for a friend and I can't wait until he sees it! Painted them with Tamiya acrylics, and the only mod was to open up the back of the intakes to make painting easier. They sure were a fun break from the more involved builds! Thanks for looking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daywalker Posted June 30, 2011 Author Share Posted June 30, 2011 Thanks guys! SO far I have built the Corsair and these two F-16's. I still have a couple of F-18's, PBY Catalina, SR-71, and F-4 Phantom to build. Really want to get the F-15 and F-14 as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_Mike Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 Thanks for the pic of the PBY! I thought that was it. I think egg-o-centrics made an A7 or F-8 asw well, and I've seen piccies of a Stuka also. To really do the PBY justice would require a lot of clear vac parts for the windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 OK fellas, don't get me looking for egg plane kits now, I already have too much stuff. They are pretty cool though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know about those! I shall have a snoop around for those kits, guessing they might be pretty expensive like the PBY was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
