Hasegawa 1:48 F-16D Barak Block 30

Not another Israeli Viper! Another superb example, great camo job. I have to ask though whether the lack of a strong green colour is deliberate? I thought the Israeli green was a little stronger than your subtle rendition. All the same an awesome job, very well done.

Hi,

the IAF F-16, Kfir C-7 and F-15I have a different Sade of green, it's seemlier to RAF sky or Xtracolor X-166 / X-7.

The green Sade that you meant is for the early IAF birds Skyhawk, Phantom and so on.

HTH,

Ilan.

The tail markings look very convincingly painted-on--are they masked instead of decals? The subtle edges look bang-on; beautiful paint work all round...

Beautiful job Ilan! Congrats on a fantastic model! How many hours did you put into it?

You're right on the lighter shade of green, although I always thought that was due to the eternal baking of the sun in the Negev. The brown looks lighter, too. The walkaround photos of the Sufa on Prime Portal clearly show these lighter shades, lighter than the traditional Israeli camo that we're all used to.

Cheers,

Bill
