Hasegawa 1:72 F-16N Topgun (718)

This is my Hasegawa 1:72 F-16N 'Topgun' Agressor. I built it about twelve years ago, before I knew a lot of techniques like sanding seams, airbrushing, etc.

I used Humbrol enamels (I can't remember which ones, I had to mix the colours is all I can remember). The F-16N is carrying a practice AIM-9L (they take the tail fins off to reduce drag and fatigue on the wing, but keep the seeker head to get a real 'tone' off the other aircrafts' exhaust) and is also carrying a red ACMI (Air Combat Manouevering Instrumentation) pod. This measures things like speed, angle of attack etc.

Very nice

Lovely work
