Bruno has already build the YF-17. For the 1/100 models but still they can be srunk down to 1/300. Model #1863. I even did a recolor of it to depict the plane that put on Greek roundels for evaluation by Greek pilots. For reference, the pilots of Hellenic Airforce asked for 100 F-18 (but had tested the YF-17) and the politicians bought 40 F-16 and 40 Mirage 2000....

And rc-network.de had the markings. The Blue Angels recolor is half done, only missing the yellow stripes above and below the fuselage. It's a lunch-break project.

Sorry, so many models that my memory started to fuse.
Best regards.
Happy modeling!

Yay for the blue Angels...
A nice to have are different tails

I wanted to do that for the frecce tricolori but I am too dumb to get the decals right :(
Thinking of a sqadron diorama... Maybe it is possible for the Blues?

The Rhino really does look bigger than its earlier siblings.

On the Blue Angels front, I've made some changes to the wingtips colors, made the fins for # 2-6 and added the 2-seater (# 7).

Thanks Chris. Any volunteer for a beta-build to check if the markings are correctly positioned? Mostly the yellow stripe on the top of the fuselage and the US NAVY markings on the side of the air intakes.

1:200 and 1:300 available.
