As planned a lot of mastic and sanding, but some detailing too...

Let's go for pictures and some comments.

I work on two kitbashes at once with the very same F-16 model kit. That's for fun, but I can also study the way I build them, take a look at what I do in parallel. That's the fun part...

Here they are, putty has been applyed and the N°XI wings has been chosen : it's Sukhoi 1/72 back wings. It's a perfect fit and even with limited glue points, it will stay in the desired angle.

The back of the thrusters are done with the two F-16 engine plus the VT-1 engine, with a circle taken from a tank, while I modified some bottle caps (toothpaste) that will be there shortly.

The wings are glued and while it dry all that will be place on a good stand for no shaking surprises.

But first let's sand a lot to gain some level with the nose, done with Valkyrie arms.

I'm pleased with the result but something is missing. I work on the edges with sprues from the VT-1. There will be less putty needed to obtain the edges I want. Then some detail in the nose (sorry, no picture).

The cockpit is detailed and the pilot will be the horrible one from the big AMT X-wing. The canopy is the one from the VT-1.

The glue point is fine, but I will add some sprues parts and F-15 kit parts. The rest of the kit will be useful in order to do some X-303 from Stargate. Since the n°XI look like the Wraith Dart, it's only logical don't you think ?

N°XII is peaceful, but not for long. Putty and mastic plastic has been applied, and it needed to dry much longer.

The little canard wings pleased me, but the engine area will be completed, the F-15 thrusters are glued, and some parts from the FG 1/144 Strike gundam give an entirely new design dynamic. SOme sanding to do for the afternoon...
