That's an impressive range of aircraft builds you've got there Chip. Excellent paint jobs and not one sign of the dreaded decal silvering. Great stuff.

Nice work chip. Did those decals come with the F-16? They are very cool. Thanks for sharing.

Yes they did Leon, there was either that option or the Oregon Air National Guard option. So I chose the Teddy version.
Thanks guys for all the kind words!

The panel that the IFF antennas (the fins in front of the cockpit) sits on seems big. And I would use a light grey for the cones and fins on the Sparrows. The color works for the sidewinders though there should be color bands on the sidewinders (consult references for which color you should use as it varies from yellow to blue to red depending on the model of the missile). In the future a wash on the panel lines and on the exaust wouldn't hurt at all. Overall, I'd say for such a young age you are well on your way to making even better models.
