Very sharp F-16! The finish looks great, as do the markings. Those Revell 1/72 F-16 kits are little jewels aren't they? Again, great looking Viper. ;)
Cheers,
Alby
Thanks Alby! ;)
Yep, I really like Revell's kit, it's for sure better than the Hasegawa one. Haven't built the Academy one yet though..
Great job Niklas!It's nice to see that the IRIS-T have been useful ^_^
I can't wait to see your two Norwegian Falcons side by side.
Cya,
Clément.
Hey Clément!
Finally I have some pics to show of the Norwegian Viper! :)
A big THANKS for those missiles, they sure came in handy! As you've probably figured out, the other one will be on
the two-seater. That one won't be finished for another few months though, I have some other stuff ahead of it in the
pipeline, waiting for some attention.. :P

Looks really awesome, Pete, just as we've comed to expect from you.
Love the Hornet as well, the weathering is spot on!

Ok guys, finally this one is done! Started during the Viper 2.0 group build, but didn't
have no time nor motivation to finish until now. It's the Revell kit in 72nd scale. Used
the Zotz decal sheet, together with roundels from Flying Colors. As I'm building an BM
as well, I only had the fin flash for that one, so on this Viper, the fin flash is painted on.
I think it got alright..
Comments? :lol:
-
This is just one crazy build...! There are no words for how impressed I am,
looking soooo good! Keep it up!
-
Looking really good so far, can't wait to see it finished!
-
Now this will be a very interesting build! By the time you're done, Tamiya will
release their F-16F, of course...
-
Nice Seahawk, I really like that scheme! You've gotten the colors just right, very nice!
-
This bird caught my interest from the very beginning, when I found the WIP. I've been following it closely,
and it turned out just stunning! All the detail you've put into this bird is simply amazing. This kind of building
technique is what I personally aim for. To be this good is my goal, you've done a bl**dy great job on the Prowler!
And it sure does deserve that first place, no doubt about that!
-
This one I will follow with great interest, since the Hornet is a favorite of mine!
Looks great so far, but that A-7 is just too cool!! Way to go!
-
A very nice job, indeed, as we now know to expect from you, Pig..
Looks awesome, I really like this one!

Hey JMan!
Regarding that Micro Mesh (MM), I might have a piece of advice for you. Try one of those nail buffers your GF use to polish her nails..
At least here in Sweden, there are nail buffers about 6 inches long, with four different grades on. From quite coarse, to really, really fine.
Not MM, but a good substitute. Will do the job, definately with a few dips in future afterwards.
Kind of a poor man's MM..
Hope you understand my explanation though, otherwise I'll just get a photo of that darn thing, to help the explanation.. :)
Good luck with that Hornet now, I'm sure it'll be a blast, just like the SLUF was until it got in harms way...

I know the 1/72 kit also released as an Austrian version, but don’t remember if it was the updated version with the RWR on the fin and the dispensers on the sides of the rear fuselage, like the 1/48 kit.
I think this is only the third plastic change release of the 1/48 kit. Decal variations aside, the releases were the J35F/J, J35O, and now the recon version.
What I can’t believe is that still no one has made Super Falcons for the 1/48 kit. We have a ton of detail stuff from Aires, some conversion stuff from Maestro (?) Models, and still no missiles.
Nope, the 1/72 version only changed boxart. Plastic parts are all the same, no matter if it's released as a Swedish or Austrian Draken. Sadly, I must say, since the Austrian OE differs quite a lot from a Swedish F or J... But I do cross my fingers that Hasegawa do see the potential of their 1/72 kit, now that their 1/48 scale kit has done so remarkably well..
-
Thanks for sharing those wonderful photos! But now I feel even more sad not being able to be there...
Looks like it was a truly amazing show, as always when the Dutch people do an airshow..
-
Nice to have you back in business, JMan! I'll have another kit
on the way to you in a few days as well...
It'll be a surprise though....

I have a book which states that export C/D-model (Finnish, Malaysian, Kuwaiti and Swiss) Hornets can in fact pull 9G.
The book I read it in is "F/A-18 Hornet - A Navy success story", by Dennis R. Jenkins, published by Aviation Week books.
It says nothing about the US Hornets being able to pull 9G though...
-
Looks superb, Pete, just awesome! You really put some stunning F-16's together..
-
Really nice job on this one, Chris!
And congrats to the awards, you really earned those..

Hey JMan, just looked into this WIP after a few weeks off ARC.
You really have a serious stroke of bad luck! So sorry to hear
about everything that's happening to you! That McD-gig might
not be the best, but still, it's a job. I've been doing some time
there myself, so I know how you feel..
Keeping my fingers crossed that you'll get better very soon, and
find a better job. We will for sure miss your WIPS in the meantime,
they DO bring all those things Spooky said, to this community!
Get well soon, and best of luck!
And finally, if you need to stash up, I'll be happy to send one
over to you, just PM your addy. 48 scale, modern jets?
-
Hey Spooky, I sure hope you get some good shots, and share'em with
us all who can't make it to Open Dagen...! Well.. I just don't hope, I'm
pretty convinced you will.. :)
That Vulcan would have been something, but I guess I'll have to wait
another year to see it. Looking forward to hear all about the airshow
and see some stunning photos!
By the way, have you painted those Drakens yet..?
-
Nice to see you've finally made it over from the Dark Side!
Was it that Y-wing of yours that brought you to the true scale?
Seriously, nice going on that bang seat, noone will tell the difference
with a closed canopy anyway...:)
-
I must say that's a really beautiful Tomcat! You've for sure done a great job!
-
Really nice looking Draken, well done!
-
Well, all that can be said about this one have already been said,
nevertheless she's a really stunning Y-wing! The weathering on
this one is simply amazing!
Well done, my friend, as always..
Glad midsommar!

Now that's a different Jaguar! Really well done on that paintjob, looks great!
