doupnik Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 (edited) I am in with the Kinetic F-16I. I have always liked the brute ugliness of the F-16 with the dorsal spine and especially the CFTs, so this will give me an opportunity to do one. The goal being a three foot build to pay my respects. I have the Afterburner decals 22FS sheet with it's DJ decal option, and the idea of doing a Have Glass build with a souped up F-16 sounds like fun. I not going to add too much to the build, just a Shawn Hull Sniper pod and maybe some weapons. I have some Wolfpack JSOWs that I've been wanting to use for a while, and I am thinking about making some EGBU-12s and maybe getting some Shawn Hull WCMDs, so we'll see. No pics yet. Hope to start soon. mason Edited March 3, 2011 by doupnik Quote Link to post Share on other sites

strikeeagle801 Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Cool beans! Can't wait to see some progress on it! I hope to get to mine again in a few days. we were at the inlaws' this weekend, and now I'm sick with a fever and a cough. Probably not the best for me to be around chemicals and such right now.

doupnik Posted March 15, 2011 Author Share Posted March 15, 2011 Thanks for the comments guys. Been working on the project as much as work allows. I went out of order and put the CFTs and spine on before the fuselage is together. Probably an ill advised attempt to get the ugly going early. There is a slight bit of softness and slight warping to the fuselage, so the spine probably helps. Doing the same with the bottom half, though the intake isn't glued yet. There is a lot of flexing to this piece, so the intake will definitely get glued in soon. Sorry for the out of focus pic. I made a wine bottle foil intake cover, part of the fun build thing, don't want to mess with those intakes too much. I didn't take pics, but it is looking OK so far. mason Quote Link to post Share on other sites

doupnik Posted April 19, 2011 Author Share Posted April 19, 2011 Thanks for the comments! :wacko: I haven't worked on this one as much as I would like, but the fuselage is together and I am almost to the cleanup before painting stage. I've been trying to figure out what to hang on this one. I am thinking about putting some things on that current USAF F-16s don't carry, I have some Wolfpack JSOWs, but I am looking for more things. I was looking for Skunkworks NATO weapons set, but they are sold out almost everywhere, but the Israeli set is available, so maybe GBU-15s and AGM-142s would work... mason Quote Link to post Share on other sites
