Premo Start Paul

Great start, cockpit looks fantastic - lots of nice details!

I've been eyeballing this kit for a while but I bought the 1/72 F16CJ Block 50 as a starter...

I will follow this build with interest

Cheers

Todays progress on the Tamiya F-16, most of its together now just a few other parts to sort and its ready for primer, Great kit with excellent fit typical tamiya.

Cracking cockpit mate!

Always liked the look of this kit. Finally get to see someone with proper skills put it together.

Posted: **Tue Jul 28, 2015 8:38 pm**

Loving the work you've done Paul.

Posted: **Wed Jul 29, 2015 5:31 pm**

Those agressor schemes on f-15 and f-16 are badass!

Nice progress, looking crisp and clean as usual

Looking forward to seeing this bird painted

Progress on the Tamiya F-16, now fully built masked and primed, put a pilot in this one, don't usually do it but it was a decent figure so a shame to not use him. Next up the camo scheme.

Posted: **Sun Aug 02, 2015 9:05 am**

Fantastic - It looks kickass already and it only has primer on...

Pilot looks awesome aswell

Dammit, I have to buy this kit too I think

Cheers

Looking nice I'm currently trying to get hold of some blizzard scheme masks. Maybe one day I can do it justice. Nice build Paul

Posted: **Sun Aug 02, 2015 12:57 pm**

Nice!
Pilot also looks very nicely painted!
Is that the "super duper no where to be found outside the UK primer"?

(StyNylRez from Badger)
I have asked Max at Rebell to bring it in to Sweden, he has ordered and now am anxiously waiting to see if he succeeds.

You and more and more modellers swear by it, and Phil at Flory models also did a great review/test.
Now I am a believer to!

its not that easy to find in the UK, I think it's a USA product

when are Ultimate going to start selling it?

So on with the camo work, not a fan of hard edge camo as i like to freehand it, but this needs a hard edge. Used the new curvy Tamiya Tape for the hard edge camo pattern and it worked very well, caves round bends nicely and no bleed through, ill show it in use in the upcoming ISM News show.

Posted: **Fri Aug 07, 2015 7:05 am**

Superb paintwork matey, looks perfect! Liking the lookin that tamiya tape too.

Posted: **Sat Aug 08, 2015 4:45 am**

Nice paint work Paul. Very impressive.

Posted: **Sat Aug 08, 2015 5:56 pm**

Beautiful paintwork Paul!! Its a great scheme for sure.. I just used the new tamiya tape last night also and i really like it.. Extremely easy to make nice curves.. Looking forward to more pics..

Also just curious which paints did you use on the camo?

I used mr hobby h11 mixed with a touch of grey for the FS36628, h317 for the FS36231, H1 for the black and h331 for the radome

Decaling all finished on the Aggressor F-16, they went down with no real dramas a couple ripped but not too bad for tamiya decals. Next up another clear coat then to choose the wash colour

Posted: **Tue Aug 11, 2015 12:51 am**

time

Nice pilot too

Posted: **Tue Aug 11, 2015 2:49 pm**

Looks great Paul. The new Tamiya tape works well I see, will have to get some.

I have an Aggressor in the stash as well. Thinking I might do the blue camo scheme, or see if there isn't a red one or something.

Posted: **Tue Aug 11, 2015 10:39 pm**

The F-16 was given a Ultimate wash today, concrete (mixed with a little dark dirt to darken it) was used on the black camo and dark dirt on the white and grey. I then gave it a Dullcote and unmasked it, Nearly at the finish line now

Posted: **Tue Aug 11, 2015 11:23 pm**

Stunningly neat and crisp. Very nice indeed!

Posted: **Wed Aug 12, 2015 12:27 am**

Wow - That is all...............

Posted: **Wed Aug 12, 2015 8:10 am**

Stunning.

Posted: **Wed Aug 12, 2015 8:33 am**

Fantastic....

I like how you have used different washes over the cammo. Really shows what can be achieved with Ultimate washes...

Cheers

Great work Paul!

Posted: **Wed Aug 12, 2015 2:55 pm**

Looks really nice mate. Good work.

Posted: **Wed Aug 12, 2015 3:44 pm**

Your pictures are so crisp and clear I love them.

The cockpit looks fantastic and the level detail is pretty amazing. Also, you're right that figure is looking sweet.

Looking forward to seeing this painted up. Cracking.

Edit: Never realised there was another page and based my comment of the first page, haha! Anyways, wow! Love it, something to aspire to once I practice my skills.

Posted: **Wed Aug 12, 2015 4:21 pm**

Awesome build Paul, those paint separation lines have to be the best I've ever seen

Posted: **Wed Aug 12, 2015 4:26 pm**

Great Viper Paul!! I bet you are loving this build after that special hobby kit .. lol i have to admit i really enjoy the better kits now.. especially the tamiya kits.. By far my favorite part of scale modeling is airbrusing so it is refreshing when the kit goes together without any huge dramas so i can get on with the paint work.

Posted: **Wed Aug 12, 2015 6:52 pm**

Only one word that springs to mind when looking at it...impeccable!
Great work and great skill.

Love the paint scheme, work and camo.

Was that the 5mm tape You used?

Posted: **Wed Aug 12, 2015 7:18 pm**

Good job Paul....that bird loooks
Amazing...

Posted: **Wed Aug 12, 2015 9:22 pm**

It looks wonderful Paul. How did you find the Mr Hobby acrylic paints? I'm really enjoying using them myself. They are a joy to use.

Posted: **Fri Aug 14, 2015 4:53 pm**

Yeah love the mr hobby paints been using them for ages now they're my go to paint

Posted: **Sat Mar 04, 2017 8:43 pm**

Paul - I'm resurrecting this thread form a year and a half ago or so for one question... what is the light blue colored paint you used as the primer? Couldn't find it reference anywhere in the thread.

Thanks, and great work. I'm building this F-16 right now and I appreciate the tips from your build!

I honestly cannot remember. It'll be whatever the base colour of the cockpit is. Sorry I can't help more
