I love how the production value and quality has increased so much since I started watching your videos around a year ago. Great to see! Another great build :)
It’s been pretty cool to compare videos from a year ago to now! Glad I have had you along for the ride🤙🏻😁
My little brother was a maintenance tech (Crew Chief) on the F-16 in the USAF at Luke AFB, AZ in the mid 90s, while I was a B-52 and B-2 Crew Chief. I've never had too much desire to build the F-16, but that's beginning to change. Yours turned out real well. Peace and love.
Oh wow!! That is so cool! Cmon you gotta do one of these bad boys, they are sick!
The Mr Color rattle can clear coats are absolutely amazing. The leveling thinner is pure magic.
It’s wizardry in a bottle!
i just gotta say your work is great and your models inspire me❤
Thank you sir! One of the best comments I have had❤️🤙🏻
Top build again Luke don't be so hard on yourself, even the most experienced modellers cock up (I should know!😉). Never seen the F16 in camo, it gives a whole new dimension to the aircraft.
Keep up the great work! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you Paul! Always like to beat up my own work so next time it’ll be a little better!😉🤙🏻
Very cool viper can’t wait for the next one :)
Thank you very much sir!🤙🏻
Very nice jet fighter F-16C/N Aggressor nice jet. Over 4,000 built & used in all air forces corners around the globe. Love the F-16 jet nice build. I have of my own too. A wonderful jet fighter aircraft. ❤😊👍🤩😁❤
Thank you very much for the comment Neil!🤙🏻😝
Nicely done,
Love the Camo😊
Thank you sir!
Impresive model and painting❤❤
Thank you very much bud!🤙🏻
Great job !
Thank you very much sir!🤙🏻
Brilliant! ...Love the Paint scheme!
Thank you very much! Rather striking I must say!😁😁
That's really nice...... with a top class finish👌🏻👏🏻👍🏻
A great way to start a day.....thank you!
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed it🤙🏻❤️
Just bought one of these and looking forward to it. During my service I visited Nellis a number of times, so it's that version for me. Nice build 👍
Thank you! I am sure you’ll really enjoy putting it together, but as mentioned in the video be wary of that fuselage step!🤙🏻
@@machmodels sandpaper and new blade will be ready 🤣
Very nicely done! I have this exact kit...and it's on this year's build list. Thanks
Thank you sir! Let me know how you get on🤙🏻
Great call on this one......been on my build radar but was undecided until watching your epic build. Brilliant job Sir
Thank you sir! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!🤙🏻
PS270 is THE airbrush. Total game changer for me. Great build too!
Thank you sir! Appreciate it🤙🏻
ngl this channel's previous F-16C/N video made me buy the kit to make it myself. Gonna do it after I finish my Fw 190 and Lim-6M (procrastination is fun lol).
Keep up the great work, Mach :D
nice channel bro
@@nathanlunev8187 really? :O
Thank you sir! Great to hear that, keep me updated on how it goes🤙🏻🤙🏻
Top results Luke, looks great.
Thank you very much sir!🤙🏻
That looks really good, job well done.
Thank you very much bud!😁🤙🏻
Really lovely work. Well done!🇮🇪
Thank you very much sir!🤙🏻😁
Looking back at this channel after half a year of the "modelling break". Dang man, this is some high quality video production, and extraordinary skills you have accumulated since I last saw this channel. More straight forward now, and entertaining to watch. Keep it up man!
Haha thank you sir! Been a crazy second half of 2023 that’s for sure. Glad to see you back!🤙🏻
Nice clean build
Thank you!🤙🏻
That,s a great scheme and execution of it! I love How you done the red canvas cover again,and it Looks even better in person when I saw it in Hannants.Hope you continue the great work!
Thank you very much sir! Fingers crossed I will get this down there on Sunday!😁
Greetings my friend, thatcwas a superb build with a great paint finish, as for the scheme itself, I much refer a standard grey, congratulations on a job very well done mate, best regsrds from a Kiwi living in Australia
Thank you sir! I must try a standard grey one at some point and see how interesting I can make it🤙🏻😝
This is a superb build, looks a lovely kit to put together 👍 Chris
Thank you very much sir! Really appreciate the kind words🤙🏻🤙🏻😉
Went to hannants today they gave me your card and showed me your models amazing work❤
How was it? Thank you very much sir! Hope to see you down there soon🤙🏻
@@machmodels it was great hope to see you too😁
Absolutely brilliant buddy 🎉
Thank you Matt! Appreciate it❤️🤙🏻
Thanks for the video really enjoyed it😊😊
No problem! Glad to hear🤙🏻
such a great kit, my absolute favourite so far to build, amazing fit
I am inclined to agree with you!🤙🏻
For an entry level brush I'd look at sparmax. More expensive than these and others that have appeared recently, but unlike them, the internals last and the spares are easy to get. They do a full range and i still use them alongside other more expensive brushes today.
Great work on the F-16. Love it.
I will have to have a look! Thanks for the comment🤙🏻
You did a good job , i like the aggressor squadrons paint shemes on the F 16s. I have been trying to decide between the Academy F 16A/C or the Tamiya kit.
Thank you very much! I’d go with the tamiya😉
Loving the Aggressor build. Seems you have found your niche with the FOD covers, a great little extra addition for the builds.
I also want to say, thank you for reawakening me interest in model building. Its been a long time since I've built any models and I'm looking forward to getting back into it with some of Airfix's 2024 releases.
Thank you very much sir! I now need to be careful I don’t get addicted!! That is great to hear, what are you working on at the minute?😁
@machmodels I've just received the Westland Sea King 1/48 and I've got both RNLI 2024 boats on pre-order.
Man, I must say these builds just keep on getting better and better! They never fail to leave me awestricken as I am quite the amateur with modelling, results like this impress me so much! I hope to be able to achieve this with my new airbrush, but being brutally honest I am petrified to even touch it ( especially with the crappy revell paints I own! It’s gonna take a while to learn so in the meantime, keep up the amazing work!!! 😁
Thank you very much for such a kind comment! If you can I would push you to potentially move into a paint like Mr Hobby or Ammo Mig to start spraying with! But don’t be scared, all of modelling is just a learning curve!🤙🏻
Absolutely gorgeous build my friend!
Thank you very much bud!🤙🏻
So cool.
Thank you very much sir!🤙🏻
Spoke with you @ Hannants London on Saturday! Great work dude.
Thank you sir! See you down there again soon!🤙🏻
Gotta say I'm impressed and I'll try out the FOD covers, strangely I've been considering this kit but it's a little pricey just a tad under $100 NZD, in the end settled on three 1/48 kits for the same price (Post Xmas Sale).Cheers 😎👍👍
Thank you sir! Definitely give them a go if not on this kit, lots of fun and a really cool effect!🤙🏻😁
Sir hi, a very nicely made model, but you loused up fixing the "Remove Before Flight" flags, the way you did was not correct, you have to pass a small wire & tie it.
Thank you very much! Ah cock! I will keep it in mind for next time that’s for letting me know, any idea what type of wire to use?🤙🏻
I like how you haven't gone overboard with the post-shading and weathering on this one. It can make the model look slightly cartoonish when overdone.
I have to agree! I think potentially the corsair was a little overboard but hey I’m still pretty new to this so just trying to find my preferred style🤪
Hey listen, I'm just an armchair critic and would take me an age to get up to your level anyway, and it's really just a comment about modelling in general. There's a bunch of other (possibly even more?) talented, and experienced model kit makers out there, but I think they sometimes overdo the shading and weathering a tad. Maybe you're the guy to break that mould??! (See what i did there etc) *watches your Corsair video..*@@machmodels
Love the build! where did you get the f-16, as i’ve been meaning to make one but cannot find any tamiya f-16s. Thanks!
Thank you very much, crickey I thought it was a popular enough kit… Amazon usually have some in stock if not placed like hannants definitely will😉
Great video, just wondering are the fod covers removable?
Thank you sir! The front one is but unfortunately the rear isn’t! To be honest they are rather fragile so I wouldn’t want to be touching them that much!🤙🏻🤣
Hi. What are you using for the HUD holographic film? I’m trying to source some of the Hasegawa stuff but I can’t get hold of any. Thanks.
Hi! Honestly all I did was search up “holographic film” into Amazon and some suitable looking stuff came up! Sorry it’s not that specific, but I hope it helps!
I got to say how are you making these models so quickly I’m still working on a model I started like a month ago
if you do it full time, yes! if not spend half hour a day to do some modelling
Honestly I have no clue! More down to the model than me! Following on from the second comment, I don’t do this full time!🤣😁
How do you build so many high quality models so fast?
Uhh honestly I am not sure! Just seem to have a good work rate at the moment!🤣
Can I ask you guys a question. To the people that do a lot of their model shopping online. What are some of your favorite sites to order from. I am in America if that makes a difference. I appreciate the help
Honestly I personally am not familiar with the US market, so we shall have to hope someone else can help us out here! Sorry😕
@@machmodels no need to be sorry. I do appreciate the reply tho.
I could not understand the use of PVA and using tissue paper.... kindly explain further
It is just used to make a FOD cover, using the PVA on the tissue paper it seals it in position👌🏻
Perfect job! I don't like the colour. My point of view!
Thank you… ehhh I think I see what you mean!
@@machmodels I'm working at this one right now and I changed the colours! I like F16s dark gray colours. BTW i like your job!
I think you’re an f16 fan??
You aren’t wrong!🤣
@@machmodels thought so 😂
