absolutely outstanding work you done Martin, i admire you especially your scratch building at this scale !!!! again an very nice build in your collection, was very inspiring watching the build like always

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks for your very kind words, Jean, much appreciated mate and I'm happy you liked how she turned out! Cheers : )

[@swing.wing_singh]

Another brilliant model sir. Great job. Looks like the real one specially the weapons stores. Brilliant build. Thanks for the video. Keep em comin'

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Sherbir, greatly appreciated mate! Cheers : )

[@PanzermansBunker]

Magnificent build and paintwork, Martin. Cool and colorful decals. Live the spiffed up interior. Bill

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Bill, greatly appreciated mate! I'm having fun spiffing up the cockpits of these 1/72 scale kits! Have a great week! Cheers : )

[@bobdyer422]

Between the scratch building in the pit, all the brush painting and weathering you built a cool jet Martin. Nice job!

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Bob, much appreciated mate! I'd like to build a 1/48 or 1/32 scale Tamiya version and airbrush it to see how it would look with all the extra details and finer paint work. Cheers : )

[@-tdjramsey-5407]

Awesome build. Love the weathering!

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks tdj, much appreciated! Cheers : )

[@PatrickMcTie]

Another great result Martin! The F-16 has always been a favorite of mine.

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Patrick, much appreciated mate! Cheers : )

[@lesthiele7645]

Hi Martin, Two words can describe this build, Excellent Job. I have seen the F-16 several times at airshows in Melbourne, and is one of my favourite aircraft after the F-4. happy building. Les

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Les, greatly appreciated mate! Where I lived prior to where I moved to last year, we had a USAF base that was loaded with the "Green Mountain Boys" F-16's from the Vermont 134th Fighter Squadron....saw them regularly flying around, plus static at the local airshows. Awesome aircraft...small, agile, fast and deadly! It's kind of like the modern day P-51D! Cheers : )

[@michaelkovach7973]

Another outstanding build Martin! Well done my friend.

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Michael, much appreciated mate! Cheers : )

[@ManCupboardModels]

Stunning! Top job Martin. All the best, Karl 👍

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Karl, greatly appreciated. It's not bad for a "Hairy Stick" job....temporary until I get my man-cave set up and my airbrush up and running again. Cheers : )

[@MoonwalkerModels]

Awesome build of an awesome aircraft!! Looks great Martin!

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Kenny, greatly appreciated mate! Cheers : )

[@OstrichLongneck]

Great video, Martin! I love the pilot POV shots in the intro, and the build looks incredible, as always - that's a lot of detail for a 1/72 scale model! I'm watching your videos in reverse chronological order. I can't wait to see her come together in the earlier ones! - Trevor

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Hey Trevor, thanks for watching and your kind compliment, much appreciated mate....glad you like how she turned out. Not my preferred scale, much prefer the large scale builds to make it easier on my aging eyes! Hope you like the build videos leading up to this reveal video. Cheers : )

Thanks Damian, much appreciated mate! Cheers : )

[@wwkdiecastmore5647]

Great video Martin! I spent a better part of two years, 78, 79 walking around 100 of these, just me and my dog. Where the 388th Tactical Wing from Hill AFB in Utah went, I followed! I guess its why its my favorite fighter, still a great jet in my book!

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Bill, much appreciated...it is a beautiful jet, I got up close and personal with a few at the "Pease International Air Show" in Portsmouth, New Hampshire...made a video of the event, it's among my uploaded videos on here. Cheers : )

[@strikeeaglemodels1588]

Super Dooper trooper! keep banging them out me old China!! :)

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Warren, much appreciated mate. My next build will be my Me 410 for the "Buddy Build" I;m hosting with Torsten. Taking a couple weeks break before I start it though. Cheers : )

[@modelcitizen6759]

Generally dymamic modelling Martin! Dave

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Dave, much appreciated mate! Cheers : )

[@AnthonyBrown12324]

beautiful model Yours ( not the original ) very informative video . I knew it was popular but surprised the extent of it's use . If I was choosing I would prefer the security of two engines a Typhoon or F18

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Anthony, greatly appreciated! I'm with you regarding the engines....it's the reason I prefer to fly long distance on airlines that have 4 engines, such as the 747-400A! Cheers : )

[@wwkdiecastmore5647]

Oh, and one more comment, I took the physical for a free ride in 79 and got it, lol, greatest rush in my life, and I only got sick twice, lol!...Bill

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

WOW!! Envious!! Man, if I was a younger man, I'd jump at the chance to fly in one...with my bad back, I think the G's would cause me a lot of pain. Do you have any photos or video footage from the event? Cheers : )

[@david.v.m.]

Great job on your f16, the panel lines came out really well. I like it a lot. Whats going to be your next model? Have a great weekend cheers!

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks mate, much appreciated. My next model...well, I am hosting a Messerschmitt me410 Buddy Build" that start on March 1st and end on June 30th...so, a 1/48 scale Me 410 is my next build. Feel free to join in, the more the merrier! We have 16 builders so far and if you have a Facebook page...I can send you an invitation to the Me410 buddy build Facebook page wherein you can chat with all the other builders, post progress photos/videos and then your "Final Reveal" photo and/or video. I'll be posting update videos of everyone's work on here, and at the end of the build, I'll be posting a "Final Reveal" video of all the builds that were done during the 4 month period. Cheers : )

[@david.v.m.]

International British Modeler can you send it me to my mail? [e-mail]

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

I tried the option to send an invite via email....but when I tried to do it, it's looking for emails of friends in my Facebook list. I think we have to be friends on Facebook...it's because the page is a private closed group, I believe?

[@david.v.m.]

International British Modeler Im wondering if your name in Face book its same as youtube.

[@david.v.m.]

International British Modeler this seems to be hard... Sry for making you wasting time.

[@BobBuesking]

Hot Viper!

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Bob, much appreciated mate : )
