No problem…
Thats looks awsome!
Add me to the fun! [:)] Put me down for a 1/48th Academy F-16 A/C. I have the CO ANG “Tiger Meet of the Americas '01”
Put me down as undecided. I’ve recently been on a roll with modern aircraft, so this will keep the ball moving.
Wow, you gents are making some really fancy Vipers.
That’s way beyond my capabilities to do those schemes.
I’m sure they will look very nice when completed.
Mine will be the typical grayscale variety // Hill AFB 388th FW
Hasegawa 1:48 F-16C, probably with a strike loadout
Is everyone in favor of this patch?:
If so, then I’ll be glad to host the image for you all. The location:

BTW, here is a neat source for paint scheme ideas:

Hey Guys,
These are two of the three I’m building. Undecided right now on the third’s paint scheme.
F-16B, Lockheed Technology Demonstrator
F-16C Block 30, NY ANG
Any suggestions for a Block 40?
I am in favor of the badge[:D]
what about the size? Is 120 x 120 too big?
I guess I could upload several sizes and let
people choose which size they like best.
I think the size is fine.
I’ve been watching the progress of this thread and i’ve decided i’d like to join
i’ve got a f16n or a polish f16 just have to finish my f15 from the f15 group build

I went ahead and made three different sizes of the badge so that
people could chose the one that fits their signature the best:
80 x 80 pixels
100 x 100 pixels
120 x 120 pixels
locations, respectively:

Take your pick 
I’ve been doing a little bit of homework on the paints
that I will need for this project, and I thought I could
share what I’ve found so far for, incase others are
building the standard graytoned F-16’s.
The FS numbers were found at this website:
http://www.101airbase.com/026/F-16C%20138th%20FW%20Oklahoma.htm
Most of the F-16’s seem to use the three gray colors,
but some use a fourth color underneath that is actually a
pale blue. I’d like to find spray cans for all of the grays,
but so far I’ve only found Gunship Gray in a can. I don’t
have a very good airbrush yet, or the experience to operate
one well for that matter, so this may become my golden
opportunity to learn!
thanks Il the paint i found for the fuselage would be 1728 model master fs 36375 light ghost gray. havent started the model yet collecting all the paints thanks for hosting the patch it looks great
Great news guys! I just recieved my 2 20mm Cannon rounds that I will be displaying with my F-16!
They are huge!
That will look really awesome. I can’t wait to see a picture.
You can get a resin cockpit from Black Box for the F-16A.
I ordered an Black Box F-16C cockpit from Squadron.
Here’s a webpage with photos:

Finding aftermarket parts for any version of the Viper is a good bet.
It’s a very popular plane to model.
Cheers
Yes, there are many parts out there for it, hey, how much do they want for the F-16C cockpit?? I was thinking of getting one, but the Hase looks good, so only if the price is right.
Good news! GM emailed me and they have sent my resin upgrades[:D] By the time they get here I should have my model room finished and be able to get right to work.
Cockpit goes for about $20 US.
Also, after I read about the seam down the middle of the
Hasegawa F-16 canopy, I ordered a vacuform canopy
from Falcon Models (actually, it comes with cockpits for
8 or 9 other jets for about $12 US + ship). Nothing has
arrived in the mail yet, but I was thinking it might be cool
to cut the “glass” out of the Hasegawa canopy frame, and
then glue the vacuform “glass” into place. I guess I’ll see
when I get my hands on the parts.
Lastly, i ordered the HAFB decals from two-bobs for ~$9
Oh ya, I just noticed that on my canopy, I’ll try sanding it and futureing it when the time comes, if it does not work I guess I’ll have to go AM.
