This
is my first submission to the ARC. My name is Brandon Shown. I normally build
racecars but I decided to give the planes a try. The F-16's fly over my house
all the time, so I decided this would be the subject of my first plane. I got
the Revell F-16 1/2 off from Hobby Lobby. I finally got around to starting this
recently. I used Krylon Pewter Grey for the light color grey on the plane. Then
I taped off the nose and painted it Testors Primer Grey. Then I painted the rest
of the plane Panzer grey. I know they aren't the exact colors, but they gave the
look I wanted. The rest of the plane was built box stock.
I used parts of the landing gear
as a practice for weathering. I don't have it down yet, so I only did the
landing gear and not the rest of the plane. I tried my hand at scribing the
raised panel lines, but I still need a little more practice as some of them
didn't come out quite like I wanted. But for my first plane I'm very pleased and
will be doing an F-18 Blue Angel next. You can see all my other models on my
website.
