Delayar Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 (edited) Hi folks! I recently finished my big scale Viper, built from the fabulous Tamiya kit with some aftermarket stuff thrown in. I built it as a F-16CM 91-0389 from the 55th Fighter Squadron during Operation Unified Protector in August 2011, operating from Aviano Airbase. The mixed loadout is chosen according to pictures of the aircraft taken on the 31st of August 2011. The decals are a mix of the Afterburner Decals "Shaw Shooters" and Speed Hunter Graphics "Big Scale Vipers" sheets. Aftermarket stuff used: Black Box Cokpit Aires Exhaust Wheeliant Wheels Shull24 AN/ALE-50 GT Resin Sniper pod and HTS pod Videoaviation GBU-38 Eduard Exterior PE Master Models AOA probes Master Models Static dischargers I also scratchbuilt some parts, like the JHMCS sensor, wheel well details and the BRU-57, which was converted from an Academy BRU-33. Here is a link to the WIP: http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234997844-tamiya-f-16cj-55th-fs-operation-unified-protector-2011-132/& More pictures will follow...

Unfinished project Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 That is a work of art 👌insane attention to detail. I don’t know whether to throw all my modelling paraphernalia in the bin or get into the garage and start getting better and better with everything I complete. I figure after one hundred and eleventytwelve thousand kits I’ll be half way there 👍👍👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davilovick Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Wow, amazing work. The paint is very neat, and the your photography skills are good 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delayar Posted July 25, 2018 Author Share Posted July 25, 2018 Thank you all for the renewed interest in my build. I am quite proud of how it turned out mysself. @Unfinished project: I know that feeling, I sometimes feel like this myself when I see other people's work.
