Though this kit did not have the sheer technical brilliance of the later Tamiya F16 tooling This is the most enjoyable of my run of modern jet builds so far.

I recommend this kit, the only fit issue bring a small gap between wing and fuselage easily dealt with by a smear of putty.

Hi Barry
Another stunning model. A tribute to your skills. I'm particularly taken with the paint job.

That is one beautiful model.

It must also be a substantial size at 1/32 according to my rudimentary arithmetic!
 
Another fantastic build Barry. You sure have no problems with switching to parafin burners .
Interesting paint job too.

Thanks everyone, I really do recommend this kit, it is not a difficult build and would be a good build for anyone who wants to do their first large scale modern jet.
 
Fantastic build barry , the paintwork is excellent , a tricky scheme to get looking right . As Steve says it must be a sizeable beast too , cheers tony

Yes but not quite as beefy as the F14...
 
Really good finish. Particularly like the colouring and texture of the engine vents.

Another great build Barry with some fantastic cockpit detail. Here's looking forward to the Hellcat.
