Hi all, this is my first post here, the Tamiya's 1/72 F-16C, basically a re-packaging from Italeri's F-16.  This is my 3rd aircraft kit, probably some mistakes can be spotted like puttying and sanding mistakes.  This kit was built Out-Of-Box (OOB) without any mods or usage of aftermarket detailing stuff.  Decals were from the kit itself, quality was quite good probably because the box states that decals were made in Japan! XD

The whole kit was handpainted with Tamiya paint (XF-19 Sky Grey, XF-24 Dark Grey, XF-54 Dark Sea Grey) and Gunze Aqueous paint (H307 Gray, H76 Burnt Iron, H52 Olive Drab).  I don’t think the colors are correct, but overall it looks good to me:D. One difficult part for me was to mask and handpaint the grey strip on the canopy, I did not coat it with Future, so can’t really afford any mistakes.  Luckily nothing went wrong... No weathering or panel lining was done.

Thanks for looking. :D
