Just out of curiosity, how big is this?

Could you get a pic with like a pen or something in it? Just to get an idea on size

Dion, about 180mm long,130 high,110 wide......

size check

F-16 & F-104

F-16 port side

These first came out years ago from a company called ESCI....now released by some other company.
The 104 in the pic is about 15years old.....the f-16 about 5 years now.



Mods: sorry this thread has ended up in the wrong area.

I recall these models , actually thought they were larger , heck you could almost continue the build and do a scaled Starfighter and 16 cool.gif

Cool!

I thought they were bigger too. Haven't built any kits for a while.

I posted some pics of mine on here 2 or 3 years ago (Had a different log on name back then though).

All 1/48 scale;


















Unfortunately the corsair had a small accident. Mostly intact, but one of the wings has been amputated.

Have heaps more unbuilt kits and am sure one rainy day I will grab the old airbrush out and start another.

WOW....Bigbird, your a man of many talents notworthy.gif .........your weathering is amazing.
Those cockpits could have been done a lot better....but great kits to build. Would be nice to see some WW2 stuff like them ....1/12th scale.

Thanks for the pics thumbup1.gif
