The F-16 has come a long way from the "lightweight fighter" it was marketed as back in the mid 70"s. Build up a SUFA and put them side by side to show the difference. Your F-4C was awesome too...Would like to see you do a IAF F-4E as well! Great job! Cheers...Ron Hi Ron, Thanks for comments. F-4E and Sufa are waiting in the stash for their turn...

I had planned on building one of these awhile back so I studied a lot of photos and I have to say you nailed the look. Could you give us some weathering tips? Thanks Bryan Hi Bryan, I used a salt technique over basecoat with lighter shade of base color. Then another very thin light shades followed by darker shade of base color. I used acrylic washes and some oils for streaks. The trick is to put several light layers and do not hesitate to use fine sanding sponge or sander to blend layers.

LSP_Ray Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Beautiful work, Memir! The weathering is fantastic! It is hard to tell the pics of the model vs pics of the real thing! Memir 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichieB Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Great finishing, I echo LSP_Ray's comments in that its hard to tell the difference between the real aircraft! Well done. Memir 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel111 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 wow, what a truly great build! I cant imagine how tough all of the scribing must have been. The weathering is exceptionally well done. Congrats all round! Marcel Memir 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
