Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted May 19, 2022 Author Share Posted May 19, 2022 Good evening everybody …Thanks Pat @JOCKNEY it is a bit disappointing but I blame myself as I should have tested it before gluing it. My mistake was to glue the flame ring on a week before I test fitted the burner can. Well good or bad the paint is on this now. Im good with it, could have been a bit tighter but its freehand and Im not complaining. My apologies the glare from the sun was causing a lot of reflection off the paint as its glossy. It was hard to get a picture that wasn't an F-2 shaped mirror so I hope these are ok. Still need to paint the grey radome, and the tips of the Stabs grey. I’ve done an F-104J in this scheme and cant wait to do an F-4. I've decided to do two Whif’s an F-15J and F-22. If I thought I could do an F-35 Whif I would also do that. Please feel free to ask questions, post comments or add thoughts. Dennis 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having built this kit I really want one of those, it HAS to be an improvement over this kit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted July 25, 2022 Author Share Posted July 25, 2022 Good morning everybody … My standard as of late another late night. I did get most of the decals on this though with only on booboo. See If you can find it while perusing the photo’s. Unfortunately I didn't catch my mistake until I was well into the decal's do continued on as there was no way to correct at that point. Its not a major flub but it is annoying to me. Please feel free to ask questions, post comments or add thoughts. Dennis 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wings unlevel Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Nice work with the camo. I can't see any obvious decal errors, certainly nothing as obvious as the errors I make! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AW Thank you gentlemen if you're curious its the do not walk line in gold. I wound up doing the version for the two seater and only caught it after about 70% was complete. Its different behind the canopy on the spine between the single and twin seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opus999 Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Wow, that looks even more striking with the markings on! This is one beautiful build! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted October 29, 2022 Author Share Posted October 29, 2022 Well better late than never considering this was supposed to be built a year or two ago in the F-16 STGB. I will post more photo’s in an RFI in aviation. My apologies to @trickyrich for this being so late. Dennis 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
