Hi all, this is my
first post here, the Tamiya's 1/72 F-16C, basically a re-packaging from
Italeri's F-16. This is my 3rd aircraft kit, probably some mistakes can be
spotted like puttying and sanding mistakes. This kit was built Out-Of-Box (OOB)
without any mods or usage of aftermarket detailing stuff. Decals were from the
kit itself, quality was quite good probably because the box states that decals
were made in Japan! XD

The whole kit was handpainted with
Tamiya paint (XF-19 Sky Grey, XF-24 Dark Grey, XF-54 Dark Sea Grey) and Gunze
Aqueous paint (H307 Gray, H76 Burnt Iron, H52 Olive Drab). I don’t think the
colors are correct, but overall it looks good to me:D. One difficult part
for me was to mask and handpaint the grey strip on the canopy, I did not coat
it with Future, so can’t really afford any mistakes. Luckily nothing went
wrong... No weathering or panel lining was done.
Thanks for looking. :D
