Ahhhhhhhhhhhh Barry....

here you go again, making us less talented (and lazy, innefficient, undedicated, and unable to finish one...ONE...model this year) mortals feel rotten...

sick with envy, and in awe as always mate....

Thanks, guys!

My wife was sure smirking late last night when I told her I had to take some quick pics for the guys on What If...

I've sent PM's to those of you who had questions.

Now, back to the "Show us..." thread so I can see more of YOUR works in progress (that's what keeps me jazzed).

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Oh... I have discovered that the F-16T name was already 'used'... And for a nice bird, too.
See http://www.cardatabase.net/modifiedairline...php?id=00000839
I prefer JHM's but the other one is a close second...

Barry, I must say you have really outdone yourself this time.  That is a very impressive paint scheme you have managed to do up on that kit.  Now if you can only pull another rabbit out of the hat and finish the TP-51...

JHM,
 This is superb work! B) I think your goal has been reached. I need pointers from YOU on how to finish out a model in style. ;)  ^_^

Look behind you!

And where the F... did that come from eh? Patiently waiting for the finished Morsair, Sabredog, Thunderfloat and you sneak that beauty in on us.

It's BAZTASTIC!

I invite all and any criticism, except about Eric The Dog, it's not his fault he's stupid

... glad newcomers discovered this great old topic/model... :)

For our webmasters: wouldn't that be great to add to topics (in the Picture forum) a reduced-size picture of the main picture inside? - for newcomers to have a quick look on the so rich past gathered on this site... :) (than click on the ones they find amazing, even 2 years old) :)

PS. Does someone have an opinion about the picture I add with the tandem cockpit (/low tail alas) F-16T from M.A.P.? Probably difficult to buid as the fin is far too narrow I guess  :(

Awesome build...love the camo !
    as far as the 'shopped pic...wouldn't that give new meaning to the phrase "hot seat" ????

I think your suggestion of a subject index complete with thumbnails is a great one, Tophe.  Don't know how much work that would be to set up but it would be more condensed than the archives which are complete with text but may not be a quick enough scan for today's pace (?).  I save pics of all the stuff I see on this site that I think are interesting just to peruse them at length later on.

As for the modified F-16 with the replicated aft cockpit, my own humble opinion is:
a. artist should have altered the image of the cockpit a little to make it less obvious that it was a copy and paste...

and...

b. sheesh, is that ever goofy!  Guess the aft occupant gets rather toasty, what with his legs dangling in the jet engine, hmmmm??
