Trumpeter 1/144 F-16A/C #3

This project has been on hold for a while to give way to 3 other aircraft projects. Now they are all completed and it is time to re-visit. Start from where it stopped.

First thing is to add a bit of color in the cockpit, dry brush enamel silver, and add a few of different color on the instrument panel and side panels. Also apply a layer of Gaia green color on the seat. Also fit a small piece of transparent green cut off from plastic file folder to make the HUD.

Next, I cut a few very thin (less than 1mm) masking tape and make the harness, and brushed blue and silver. It is then time to close the canopy.

The fit isn't great, I have to glue the front to the fuselage first, let it dry and secured and then force the rear part of the canopy to fit on to the fuselage aft the cockpit area.
