Hi!
I am Volkan from Turkey and this is my one of the latest builds. I finished
my F-16 in the colors of the commander's jet of 52nd FW which is based in Spangdahlem
AB. Tamiya's brand new F-16 is the most exciting kit I have ever made.
This kit
has finely engraved panel lines with rivet details. Besides, I didn't face any
fit problems during the build process. Therefore, if anybody wants to make a
correct and detailed F-16, I think, Tamiya's kit would be the best choice. J

I
didn't use any aftermarket detail sets, because this kit satisfies you by having
enough detail. I used Vallejo Air acrylic paints and weathered it slightly
with pastels. I also used the kit's decals, which are a little bit thick.
But
after the application of Microset and Microsol decal solutions, they placed
very nicely. However, the kit has one big problem which is a huge seam line on
the canopy. I solved this problem by sanding the seam gently and applying
the Tamiya's compound to the canopy.
I
hope you like my F-16. J
Volkan
