Pauls F-16 Egg Plane

Post by Paul »

So all done, not a bad little kit. The canopy tinting worked out well, my jammy dog masking tape must be past it prime as its left residue behind, allowed some paint bleed and given some loose edges to the canopy masking edges, once all the matt coat has cured running a finger over it will smooth it down :thumb2:

Painted using Mr Hobby Aqueous paints and cleared with alclad matt klear. The exhaust was done using alclad magnesium. Oh yes and my homemade cocktail stick pitot tube :cheers2: Sadly the right hand tail decal fell to bits and i just couldn't get it to sit right :(

A good bit of fun though :thumb2:

Love your work :bow:: the paint fade at the front and the tinted canopy look great.
The decals defiantly seem to be the weakest part of these kits
