The original decals were too dark and out of register, so I decided to spray it on my own, once the Aizu tapes arrived to PL 🙂

I know, the lines are not perfectly straight, but I'll try to correct them as much as I can

Great looking paint, Lukasz! Must have been a long process to get that all masked up properly...

Always nice to see if someone builds a Dutch version. Looks very good already

Thanks guys. Well, It's not very pretty actually, lots of handpainted corrections here and there. But meeting a pair of Dutch F-16s over Scheveningen month ago motivated me to push it out of the workshop finally after almost 20 years 🙂 The paint is so thick (except for the stripes) that the wash will be pencil-drawn 🙂 That's why I don't publish too many close-ups here😉 Still I need to re-draw pilot's name on the starboard one day...
@Martien: The Revell's orange one waits in the queue 🙂

"Washed" using a pencil (you'd better not ask for closeups), ordnance mounted, canopy frames handpainted. What is left for the weekend? Dischargers and canopy varnish.

Finito! Hope you won't see the pumice-like surface here and there and not-really-straight handpainted lines 🙂 However the fin dischargers have been straightened after the photo session 🙂
I have a strong suspicion the macro in my new camera must have some kind of "polishing" feature 😄

Wish I had the "polishing" feature on my camera! Macro just makes my errors look so much bigger!

Thank you Gentlemen 🙂
@Gordon: same story with my old Fuji, its macro was just too good😉

Well, the pics are better than the kit itself😉 But nevertheless - thanks a lot!

Thx Patrick, I'm also surprised I did all the stripes and somehow refrained myself (at least twice) from throwing it into a bin😉

I think all the kits deserve an opportunity. You have done well not to throw it in the trash. I like the weathering. Congratulations!

That Revell boxing brings back a lot of childhood memories. The Block 15+ sprue was really nice! The new Revell F-16 is beyond comparison and the best F-16A(M) on the market! I'm looking forward to your Solo Display one already!
