    Revell 1/144 F-16c Fighting Falcon

    Hello Guys,

    Finally finished it :smiling3:

    It’s the first 1/144 build I’ve tackled and it was very enjoyable.
    I found that I had to be more careful handling the model during the build due to its small size and delicate nature, something which doesn’t come naturally to me being a bit ham fisted :tongue-out3:

    I used a mix of Vallejo Model Air and Tamiya paint and Tamiya Extra Thin Cement.

    Here are the pictures:

    Very nice finish. 144, that's a scale I generally avoid. Too small for me.

      Lovely finish on a colourful subject Geoff. That really is quite tiny though……surprised the carpet monster never snacked on the whole thing

        The Carpet Monster did try and take a few bites Tim but fortunately I was able to beat it into spitting it out :smiling6:

              That's a cracking result that belies its size.

                  Hi Geoff
                  That is an excellent result especially given it's tiny size.
