Re: Booya!
Fantastic job on the F-16 D, Kroll777.
Looks great!
Can't imagine the amount of work that went into that. Much more than a repaint.
Only issue I can see is that the very rear of the canopy should blend a bit more smoothly into the fuselage.
Not trying to be critical, just honest.
But an awesome custom, and truly unique.

Re: Booya!
Your right! Thx It's fixed. Here is a new pic. I adjusted the hump it's correct now. It might still look a little wrong because right at the tip its painted the darker blue. Anyway the bird has some weathering. I can't work a camera so the sunlight washed out the colors. I've got buddy who has a great camera so maybe I can get some better pics later. Still a few odds and ins to work on.

HOLY SH_T!
WOW MAN!!! Canopies are definitely one of the hardest things to do in my book! How did you do such an amazing job?!?!?!
Fantastic work!!! I love those twinkie shaped canopies!

Re: Booya!
That's is nicely done. Great Job!! I'm with Flyboy. Give us the scoop on the canopy. It's doesn't look like thin vacuum formed plastic.

Re: Booya!
Thx guys . I've still need to tighten up things like the air brakes. I'll try to explain how I did the canopies when I have a little more time. That's an awesome F-18 scheme. I thought about doing that one. I've have a few in mind but have not narrowed it down. The canopy on the hornet needs a redo and a ton of work . Hopefully I'll have a couple single seat f-16 aggressors coming out soon. If you guys have any ideas for f-16 aggressors put some pictures on here.

Re: Booya!
Impressive Kroll777...That F18 will be as well!
Re: Booya!
Here's what I'm thinking on the F-18. Tell me which one you like. I'm leaning towards The Blue Angel #7 or #4.
If BBI reproduces the F-18 I have a ton of single seat F-18s to do.

Re: Booya!
Same as other thread:
Hello guys,
I have not been on here for some time and have not been able to work on the Hornet at all. I have a very sick little girl but things are getting better. Hopefully, I can get cracking on it soon. The canopy needs some work to make it right. Its not there yet. Pizzaguy nozzels are taped on but they look way better. Here a few pics.
