F-16D BLOCK 52+Advanced
The conversion of TAMIYA’s F 16C to the F-16D version was not a simple matter. I bought the F-16D 1/48 KINETIC kit and kept the top fairing piece as it matched the TAMIYA fuselage. and the lengthening of the spindle that version D has from the cockpit to the vertical stand. All the rest of the kit is TAMIYA. I didn’t want the easy solution of the KINETIC because the quality of the plastic and the engraving is clearly inferior. I bought the following.
1)Aires F16D Fighting Falcon cockpit for Hasegawa kits F16 D cockpit AIRES 4291
2)F-16 A/B Exhaust Nozzle 1/48Code: AIRE4133
3)1/48 F-16C CFT set from the https://grandmodels.gr/en/
4)Aires 4370 F-16C Falcon wheel bays Tamiya
5)F-16C/D Greek Air Force Vipers – Part I (No booklet included)

After we closed the kit, we covered the entire model with aluminum and with a minimum of black we covered the panels at specific points, here we must clarify that the F 16 of HAF are painted with a coating Have Glass. This dye requires the right colors and the right process to be successful .I chose the colors of mrp
