I've finally finished my Revell 1:32 F-16C. It was OOB except for the cockpit instruments which was an extra. However it was a bit of a waste of money as the kit I bought doesn't fit very well. I also modified the air intake as the kit leaves the front wheel bay on show so I used some plasticard to smooth it off and I think it's much better. I also rescribed all the panel lines as it comes with raised ones. I think I did ok but still made a few mistakes. For the paaint job I tried undershading but it didn't come through. I used oil paint to high light the panel lines but find when coating with future the oil runs again no matter how long I left it to dry. Tips, hints, help and coments all welcome. Sorry about the quality of photo's my camera has broken and this was the best I could do.

Good job on that one. It is definently bombed up and ready to go. You have to love those markings even though it looks strange with German colours on an US plane.
