Awesome new paint scheme to try---F-16 Arctic camo

[David Hingtgen]

The paint's literally only been on for a week.

*click+save* I can use this.

Very refreshing considering our fighters are typically all grey.

Nice makes a change from Grey with Grey

I was thinking of a similar design for a low-vis VF-1A w/ fast packs....thought it would look cool.

Wow, very nice look for the F-16. Only a week old huh, cool.

[mojacko]

like the camo pattern.....very refreshing indeed!!!

I think that subsequent versions of "Arctic Camo" will probably need to include some brown, and maybe green, considering the rapidly melting ice cap.

(I do like the colors.)

It looks like this is the 18th Fighter Squadron at Eielson AFB?

I'm loving this color scheme. Wow!

I've got a spare hasegawa VF-1J fighter kit (sorry it's not that special). I'll give it a shot, worse case scenario I spend a day removing paint. Any chance of getting better views of the top and bottom of the aircraft? I've got a Battroid kit as well, but that might be a challenge.

I'd love to see a Dobber style SV-51 in those colours, arctic camo rocks.

I may have found my next project...

Twobobs is making decals, once they're out there'll be full painting diagrams.

The decals with the color split will be a big help to those wanting to make a faithful variable fighter rendition.

OK, I'm torn, help me decide. I have a 1A/1J battroid kit, and a 1J fighter. Which should I do? I have another project for one of them, and while I want to do a fighter, I can't help but think this scheme screams Battroid in terms of coolness factor.

[Excillon]

Can someone who can photoshop put this on a super 1J battroid for me, and a 1J valk? Something I can use for a reference.

Thanks Dave for sharin'. I though I saw that news article a while back too. Much better than sleepy ole' grey on grey. - MT
