Forum: Work in Progress

hello all,
I have been working on this for about a month now, its the Kangnam kit, with Eduard PE sets for the Hasegawa kit. Some things might be a little off, but for a non viper guy, I dont think it looks too bad so far.

this is the cockpit (resin)

this is what it looks like after alot of work. and the gunbay is in

this is the scratchbuilt refuiling bay

more later Very Happy

the cockpit (without seat and coaming around panel)

the radar with some detailing and parts

wings on

more pics later, I dont have any new ones of recent progress. Any comments welcome

jim

Wow looks promising. I like the worki you did on the radar

What aftermarket pit did you use, Black Box. And what are the markings you gonna use.

Viper, I used the Verlinden cockpit for the Hasegawa F-16, and I also have several PE sets for the same kit going on this one. Still need to pick up a resin can and markins. Im thinking about using using markings from the blackwidows. For all the stencils Im using hobbydecals drytransfers

here is the progress for today:

jim

The paint job looks awesome. Keep it coming. Cool

I used the Colorado ANG tiger meet markings for this thing. The standard low vis stuff is just too boring I think. and thanks for the nice comments guys.

jim

this is all I have done so far :

just the aux light on the right side of the cockpit and the seat (It'll be last)

little more detailing, and some paint

jim

heres whats been done today:

still have to do the final drybrush, and wash, but these areas are pretty much done

jim

this is what I have done so far, lotsa white paint, and PE for the glass.

hope you all enjoy.

jim

here are the Afterburner decals I decided to use on this thing, well worth the money I spent on em.

jim

Looks awesome so far, keep the pix coming. Where did you order the kit from?

Damn that thing is on fire. That is one awesome looking F-16. Can't wait to see the finished model.

jaws, I got the kit from MRC website, think it was about $30.00.

Thanks viper, still a ways to go. so far this is about 2 months worth of work, but I have enjoyed the journey.

The most recent progress, the wheels are on, and the pipe on. Also have finished the acess doors, but havn't installed em yet.

enjoy

jim

Just ordered mine, it'll be in work after the 1:32 Tamiya F-16CJ & 1:32 Academy F-16 (will be Block 42 with PW-229 powerplant). Planning on updating the weapons load, decals, etc., with whatever I have left from the other 2 kits.
