This Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) F-16C from 140th Squadron was built out of the box from the Tamiya 1/48 F-16CJ kit with decals printed from ScaleNutz.  The RSAF F-16s was of the Block 52 series, as such, there were some inaccuracies as the Tamiya kit was base on Block 50 series.  The major differences of the model as compare to the actual aircraft were the engine exhaust and the IFF antenna in front of the cockpit.
 
The model was pre-shade with black and Mr. Color paint was used straight out of the bottle.  I had also included 2 Harpoon missiles contributed from Hobbyboss F/A-18C as RSAF does not carry the AGM-88 HARM and its accessories.

This is my 1st jet model (4th aircraft model) and was build within 2 weeks to support a local group-build (theme: teen fighter, i.e. F-14 till F-20) that was held on 30th Dec 2007.
