RAAF F-16CG

[Keith Diamond]

Another Whif and perfect for Aussierama!

This time I based it on the Saudi scheme that Trigger posted here Linkage
I reversed the upper colors and replaced the dark tan with a dark green

- 1/48 Hasegawa F-16 kit built as a Block 40
- Pods and GBU-16s from the Hasegawa weapons set
- RAAF decals left over from the AMT F-18 kit
- Scratchbuilt pitot tube
- Scratchbuilt scab plates based off the stencils provided by Daniel Perez Vertti (Much appreciated!)
- Main canopy tinted with a mix of Tamiya Smoke and Yellow
- Krylon River Rock and Camo Green for the upper camo
- Krylon Pewter Gray Gloss for the lower camo
- Flory Models Dark Dirt wash

Looking good, especially like the different camo and retaining the full colour roundel add thats certain Aussieness that used to show with their aircraft that has been strangely missing with regard to their Hornets.

Quick question though shouldn't their still be a wing roundel ?

Thanks guys!

Look at the 4th photo in the second post.  The roundels are located between the fuel tank and the GBU-16.  The RAAF Hornet pictures I saw had roundels on the underside, but not on the topside.  That threw me off as well when I first noticed it.
