Dereknf Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 This is the Kinetic F-16AM in 1/48 scale. Ididn't find it the easiest kit and as there are lots of options, I think there are more parts left over than I actually used. Finished in Hataka red range acrylics and with the excellent Syhart decal sheet depicting FA-57 as it appeared at Fairford in 2019. The artwork is superb. zz20211018_203811 by Derek N.Ferguson, on Flickr zz20211018_203808 by Derek N.Ferguson, on Flickr zz20211018_203752 by Derek N.Ferguson, on Flickr zz20211018_203745 by Derek N.Ferguson, on Flickr zz20211018_203722 by Derek N.Ferguson, on Flickr 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bertie McBoatface Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 That's a real eyecatcher. Its beautifully built and subtly painted. The decals, on the other hand are perhaps a bit stark. The dead black and white stripes really seem overpowering. I'd suggest a light grey wash to slightly tone them down to match the rest of the paintwork.

exdraken Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Great and interesting build! Yeah, the Kinetic F-16 is not known for ease of build .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tojo72 Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 That came out great,I have the same decal set in my stash,curious about how the decals went on,were they a nightmare to handle,did they fit,a lot of trimming necessary ? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthspud Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 that looks epic. If you don't need the spares i'll happily relieve you of them to add to the F16 pile.???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dnl42 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Nice work and a wonderful scheme! I especially appreciate this build as I have their family model--way too many options resulting in some very sketchy parts fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks The decals are great. The stripes fit perfectly. They do tend to stick where they are put so careful positioning is recommended. Thanks for the comments folks. Much appreciated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
