  Lebanon National Day 2004 

 

This is Velinden's 1/1 scale "Trophy model" F-16 control stick, kit# 20026.  The model was released around 8 years ago if I remember well.  It is made up of 13 resin parts with the base and a sticker name plate.

The main disadvantages of the kit was the absence of an instruction sheet, no painting guide ........and was expensive to buy.  Construction was straight forward.  I applied a few matt black paint as a base, sanding it to inspect any imperfections and then applied around 5 coats of thinned semi gloss black.

 

 
 

The only metal part was sprayed using Alclad highly polished aluminum.

I hope you like it.
Happy modeling
Yours
Emad
