  1. Very nice build.

  2. Superbly finished. Well done!

  3. Great build and photos Rafi.
    I'm not a fast jet modeler but, I've read if your going to build a F-16 kit,Tamiya is the way to go. Looks like you've proven that.

  4. Great build. The only modern jet I've built is Tamiya's 1:32 F-16 for a friend whom flew one. Great kits!

  5. Great build Rafi 😊 don't want to mention politics but a certain country could do with a few full sized f-16's. That aside a super model Rafi 👍

  6. Very nice looking model Rafi (@blackmopane). It's awesome! This one is definitely on my to do list 😀

  7. Excellent build! The Tamiya F-16 is a very forgiving kit. About the only things I'd replace on it if I were to build another one is the nose (those pesky seams) and the ejection seat.

  8. Fantastic looking jet, Rafi.

  9. Beautifully done, Rafi. @blackmopane

  10. Well done, Rafi! I agree, that Tamiya kit is very solid, I built the same one...love the Razorback decals!

  11. Another beauty - that "red tail" scheme is a real stand-out also! Well done.

  12. Fantastic, Rafi @blackmopane, and a far cry from my old Monogram F-16A! 😁 Great job again, sir! 🤩

  13. That's a beautiful job Rafi. I really like the way the paint work turned out, very realistic. Great job.

  14. Nice looking Air Guard F-16 !
    It looks awesome !
