That looks splendid: a very convincing aircraft and a gorgeous cammo scheme: well done!  :wub:  :thumbsup: :bow:

If I may make a small suggestion: a panel line around the base of the radome would be a good idea to make it more distinct.

excellent looking bird in the end! ;) BRAVO!  :cheers:

I'm unsatisfied for to have a little ruined it with a overdone weathering..
but given the complex camouflage was impossible to remedy without to repaint all.

WOW.  This turned out great.  Good looking bird with a terrific camo.  And to my eye, the weathering looks good.

:thumbsup:

We don't just embrace insanity here.  We feel it up, french kiss it and then buy it a drink.

Darnit!  I can honestly say that your design looks soooo much more sleek (sleeker?) than my own F-16 T-Tail modifications.  My hat's off to you, G.Marcat.   :bow:

In the beginning of this project i have done two drawings to imagin how the F-16/104 could be done.

The shape that come out from the my drawings is as the kit made from you.

Instead, I choose to use the back spine taken from the Hornet and this has changed completely the look of the F-16/104
