Two steps forward, one step backwards. I was short of tape and purchased a role of Kamoi Tape, bad move as it's too thin and paint bled through on a number of areas, have to repaint the outer ventral fins, and the left side of the intake. 😞 You can see the splatter on the trailing edge. Lesson learned, stick with Tamiya tape.

Aero Masks released a mask set for this.

I switched to Tamiya, no drama so far.

Sometimes things work out. I ordered this decal sheet (Bare Metal Foils) from a company in France. Waited, and waited, and waited; nothing.

Finally started painting. I missed a small are on the front of the intake, went back and touched it up. Then found a dog hair in the touched up area. Will fix after it dries.

LOL, I thought I'd be posting photos of a painted airplane today. I needed a lot more putty then I originally thought. I just need to fill most of the holes in the wing bottom in, final (i hope) sanding; then tape, paint, repeat a couple more times.

I don't believe so. The one article I read said they reduced the stealth capabilities of the aggressor jets. I assumed that was done via the paint scheme.

They added some more photo's. Again photo's start on page 3. https://www.f-16.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=55497&view=unread#unread
