Revell 1/144 - F-16A Fighting Falcon - WiP 1

DSC01976

Started modelling Revell latest 1/144 kit just last week, released was a F-16C but the kit comes with all the parts to model the F-16A which is lucky as the only decals i could find which i like are from the first production vipers.

Not much to do to the cockpit, cut the headrest off the ejection seat then added a more detailed rest and around the cockpit added a few bits missing which should add a little detail once the canopy attached.

Had to completely remodel the front wheel bay, strange as the rear ones is perfect. Once the 2 pieces for the intake are joined, the bay looses alot of detail which was already lacking to begin with compared the what the other wheel bay looks like, at first i didn't really what to but turned out to be quite easy to scratch up a new one.

Start painting this now and then have a look into having the air brakes open.
