Hi fellas :th:

All done with this. Tamiyas 1/48 kit was used for this, with Twobobs decals. Also used an Aires exhaust.

Here's the real thing. Now in storage I believe :(

And here's mine. I painted one of the wing tanks gray, just for fun! If you can spot my glaring mistake... You're a spotter, lol!

Nose radome colour???

Still mighty fine though. Inspiring me do do something a bit special ... or at least something different to the OOB scheme with my F-16.

Schweeeeet!!! :hi:

Lol! No, this one had a grey radome. According to Twobobs and Google anyway. Guess again, lol!

Looks fantastic! Somewhere squirreled away I have the Two Bobs decals for the F-15D in the similar scheme. Its great to get away from the grey, makes the F-16 really pop.

Nice job Chief certainly something different from the norm :thumb2: . Is the mistake that you painted the small aerial at the base of the fin which doesn't appear to be in the photo?

That's lovely. I've vowed never to make an all grey aircraft. So one of these is definitely on my list. :clap: :clap:

Beautiful work though!
