planehazza Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 So, I had a spare F-16C kit, and I always wondered what a stealth F-16C would have been like had the USAF gone down that route. It was a challenge, but a fun one. If you think HaveGlass V is hard to paint, try the stealth coating of an F-22/F-35 on a F-16 when you have zero reference material. Anyway, here it is: ...... I hope you like, and sorry if you didn't find it funny 11 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fewr9fkr9595 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Be a licence to print money! Selling apparently empty bottles/jars of paint. Saying that could paint the outside of said containers to show what the paint can do then hand over ‘nothing’ in exchange for cash. Too far??? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bandsaw Steve Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Sorry but it’s got some accuracy issues. To me it looks a lot more like Harry Potter under his invisibility cloak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wlad Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 It was a common joke at airshows here in Canada in the early '90s to have the stealth fighter do a low pass over the runway. You could hear it from speaker to speaker, doing the "low pass", but no airplane. You modelled the static display one. Cheers, Wlad 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard E Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 It's very good but I think some of the smaller stencils might be the wrong shade of FS grey and the panel lines on the tail plane could don't look "right" to my eyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

picard Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I really like the wheel chocks actually, as I think it brings a nice scale to the model bringing all that brilliant panel wash and faded weathering work to life, it must have taken you many many hours to achieve the effect my firnd.😊 I would love to see a boarding ladder with a helmet with an open canopy attached only again to bring this masterclass alive.

Mig Eater Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Jokes aside the Film Patlabor II featured a "stealth" version of the F-16 that I always thought would make a nice what-if build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
