Builds F-16CJ 1/32 Viper

It's already taken longer than the real thing. I'm targeting Christmas while resisting the temptation to start anything else from the stash.

Which Christmas??

That looks pretty accurate to me. Touch in the non-white bits with yellow primer for that truly authentic squadron line swine gash job look. Oh... it's not a Tonka is it?

Just as grubby until something needs changed out. Same effect needed for the panels that are opened regularly.

Best not mention a certain Wokka then...

And while thinking through the undercarriage fit this happened!

Fcuk !! I'd been careful while removing the flash and exhaust marks, obviously not careful enough. The only way I can think of solving this is trying to drill out the centres and trying to fit a pin. I doubt soldering is a good idea. Who at Tamiya thought that soft metal was a good idea, ye cheap skate fekkers!! Hannants has a replacement for a Hasegawa F16 which might work but needs quite a bit of work. Certainly cheaper than a new kit.

Just get the replacement set, had the same thing with the Heinkel He 162

I had hoped nobody would ask that in the way when the police ask about the body under the patio and the only answer you have for them is "I hoped we could just overlook that".

Unless I can solve some of the problems I might have to fit in a Spit first.

Look on the bright side, it will be finished before my U-Boat
