Fighting Falcon ***NOW FINISHED***


Recommended Posts

Right folks - this was my submission for the F-16 group build which I managed to finish a couple of days late :banghead: I was so close but yet so far!!!

 

This is only my second modern jet build and I really enjoyed it - made more enjoyable by the fact it's an excellent kit IMOH.  Hopefully I can have as much luck completing the Zvezda Mig-21 for the other group build.

 

So I would really appreciate your feedback on this one and I hope I have done the kit and the aircraft some justice. Built OOB with just a couple of tweaks such as a scratched up pitot tube.  Pics below - hope you enjoy:

Thanks for your comments FortyEighter & Steve - much appreciated.

 

Hopefully I'll do my third jet justice (the Mig-21) which will be followed up by my fourth - the Airfix de Havilland Vampire.  Modelling jets for me seems to have been like buses - I've waited ages for one - then they've all come at once lol!!!!

That looks great, especially for your second foray into modern jets.  You've achieved some nice, subtle shading to enliven the grey scheme (especially on the upper fuselage) and done a good job on the exhaust.

 

Looking forward to your Zvezda MiG-21!!
