Hello everyone! I just finished my WIP of the 1/48 Italeri Israeli Air Force F-16C Barak.
I won't get into the details of the kit here but I do have plenty to say about it in my WIP thread so if you're interested check it out.
Anyway, here she is. Hope you like it! (I'm not a great photographer so keep you pic expectations low, please).

That's a real beauty you have there. Wish I had your skill. Perhaps one day.
Dude, you do great work! Almost hate to point out that your Stars of David are on backwards...
I love the look of Israeli aircraft and you have definitely done it justice.

Fly-in-hi, this is damn impressive. You've definitely got this down to a science. I had a question about the decals too... Are the rescue arrow decals in English for Israeli jets as well? It only just occurred to me. Wouldn't they be in Israeli? lol Any background on this anybody? =]

That is a gorgeous Barak. Absolutely fantastic. Weathering is perfect.

I looked at a bunch of pics on the internet as I was building this and it seems like there were a mix of English and Hebrew stencils. I'm not sure why they don't just use one language.
MAgather That is a gorgeous Barak. Absolutely fantastic. Weathering is perfect.
Simply stunning really. Great job and excellent recovery on the hiccups you had too.
Your photography is miles ahead of most people too, so no worries there either. :D
That's a beauty!!

This ended up being a good build because it really forced me to be patient and use some more advanced type modeling skills. I got alot out of this one. Don't get me wrong, though, I still think this kit was a lemon. But part of the challenge of modeling is turning the lemons into lemonade, right?
Buckeye That's a beauty!!
On a seperate note...
I just realized that I forgot to add the pitot tube on the side of the nose just behind the radome and the TAT probe. You can see the attachment point on the side in the first pic. I still have the parts on the sprues so I'll paint them up and attach them. Oops!
Fly- this is just fantastic! Although the kit was a lemon, I think you have brewed up something quite a bit more tasty and far stronger than mere lemonade.
Truly another masterwork.
Holy wow. This is a real stunner. Your shading is superb and spot on. Well done!! thanks for sharing this....

FnH that's, as the song says, some kinda wonderful. The Israeli scheme is by far my favorite and yours looks the poo there buddy. Nice!

I added the missing pitot tube and TAT probe. Now she's oficially done:
Man, she's a real stunner man! I can't keep from looking her over, over and over. That's a beautiful warbird!

Although I should say thanks to you for sharing. I've got a couple of your threads saved in my browser...like the weathering streaks on a P-47 build you did a while back and a thread on how to wire radial engines. I think I saved a cockpit tutorial you did, as well. I haven't built any WWII subjects in several years but I've got a few in the stash and when I start to build them I'll be refering to your work.

I've got the IDF 2 seat F-16l and the UAE version 2 seat F-16 c/d . I plan to do the UAE one first as it uses the I believe tri gray color scheme to get me ready for the Israeli F-16. Can't wait to hang lots of munitions under the wings. they both are the 2 seaters with the conformal tanks on the top of the wings.
Wow, absolutely amazing work.
