This is Kinetic's recent re-boxing of their F-16I, this one includes IDF weapons and the big 600 gallon fuel tanks.
I continue to have a love hate relationship with Kinetic, this kit was missing half a pylon for the 600 gallon fuel tanks, they are sending me one (I think), so I pushed on with the build anyway. Kinetic's instructions continue to be rubbish, wrong part call outs, omitted steps, and vague! Why can't they get on board like other companies and do CAD instructions and actual colour photos for paint scheme call outs. Their F-16 mould is showing it's age, flash, deformities and ejector pins in horrible places! All the negatives said, Kinetic are the only ones who make all the types of F-16 in 1/48, so I guess it's put up.
Camouflage is painted with AK Real Colors, other paints used were Tamiya, Mr. hobby, Gunze buffable metalizer, Vallejo Metal Color, oil paints, Posca pens for the instrument panel switches. Flory dark dirt wash, Mr. Color Semi-gloss super clear for final coat. I also tinted the canopy on it.
