While It’s Still A Whif…

This one looking like it may become reality sooner than later, but I'm sure I can come up with a better color scheme than the boring gray it will inevitably wear.

Looking forward to what you come up with Nick

Yawn Darts are pretty boring in grey.  Heritage scheme perhaps, or Euro One with lots of ordinance that goes 'BOOM'?

I'm tempted to do one in USAF Vietnam era camo with the white underside and some shiny silver  BLU-1 napalm canisters. Only reason I haven't done one yet is because F-16s imo look really ugly with a black radome. Early Dutch Air Force F-16's had black radomes and it just does not look flattering at all:

How about the Viet Nam scheme with a tan radome then?

Parts breakdown in the box looks very similar to Tamiya, but that's where the similarity ends.  After last evening's session I was tempted to relegate it to the Shelf of Doom and break out a Tamiya Block 32 C model and make that work.  But I decided not to give up and to break out some putty and get to work with some PSR.  First round is drying and I'm off out for a little live music. 



Also to clarify it WILL be gray...as I'm sure the real ones will be when they show up in Ukraine's skies...just not the boring old Hill Scheme the Dutch ones wear (most likely initial donors I've read).  Going to come up with something with a cool camo pattern and different shades than normally seen. Hopefully it works.

Your work is always spot on, so I'm sure it will rock regardless of how gray and boring it turns out lol.

Cheers !

Digital! The Ukrainians seem to LOVE their digital camo's!!

I am on the verge of assigning this kit to the Shelf Of Doom and starting over with a Tamiya kit.  This thing really is a pig of a kit. I can see why Kinetic just did a new mold of it.  The old one is hard to love.

I agree they look ugly grey with a black radome, but paint it camo and the black radome fits in!

The Venezuelan F-16s carry a SEA-esque paint scheme, even though with slightly lighter colors (and a grey radome):



Looking forward to another Unkrainian F-16. I did one - assuming a military support program in the Nineties - in pixel camo (thanks to a decal set for the cammo), adapted from Su-24s and 25s of that era, rather pale in color.
If the real-life hardware support materializes, I'd assume that the aircraft will carry a dull grey scheme (Egypt One?), though.

That Venezuelan camo is nice, never seen that before. At first glance you'd think it was a USAF Aggressors scheme.

Also makes me wish US fighters weren't so damned...boring.
