Re: 1:48 F-16 Fighting Falcon
I like these both but favor the second one. The color combo (as well as the execution of it) looks spectacular! Great job!
Re: 1:48 F-16 Fighting Falcon
Great looking ones! Polish perhaps more.. Still so special to see the Polish insignia on US made planes... Not use to that yet! :-)
And euhm, must admit, but I have sort of missed to recognize this modernised version of F-16, that extra squarish "backpack" makes it look so different to the roundish, flat original F-16. And not sure yet, if I like the original version more or this modern one...
Nevertheless, well done builds both of them!
Would be interesting, purely of curiosity, any bigger differencies between Hasegawa versus Kinetic ?

Re: 1:48 F-16 Fighting Falcon
What looks better, a clean Adversary or Tigermeet or a full packed F-16I, I dont know, next will be older versions, like both..
What is the difference between the kits:
not all versions are possible to build from one firm, so you have to choose
Italeri:F-16A/B/AM..not so expensive, newer one with nice Decals, fit is ok, but the details are not so good and the cockpit/ Landinggear bay is poor detailed, the landing gear makes a nose up position, can be adjusted, only min. external load
Hasegawa: lot of versions, good fit but poor details of cockpit and Landinggear bay ; only min. external load
Tamiya: only F-16C Block 25 to 50; not the legendary Tamiya fit, but best fit of all F-16, good details, only limited decal versions, good external loads
Academy: Copy of Hasegawa, only F-16A and early C, bad fit, poor details..
Kinetic: nearly all versions, good details, a modern weapon set with a F-16 in one box, crispy surface and a lot of parts, not so easy to handle but my favorit
