ITALERI F-16 PORTUGUESE AIRFORCE BUILD VIDEO 

Dramatic. Masterclass.

Beautiful work, my friend, wow, just stunning!

Alex,superb job all around. The paint and decals were some of your best work. You said something in your video about your English, brother I was born in the United States and lived here most of my life and I can tell you,your command of the English language is far superior than a lot of people born and raised in the United states and that's the truth. Again I enjoyed the video, stay well and safe my friend. My best to your family as well.🇵🇹🇺🇸👌👍

Great build!

Still no luck finding myself a SR-71 Black Bird I wish to find one soon, I enjoy watching your videos my brother, they are so informative and intriguing always with a smile stay safe from the Covid 19 and keep building

Respect great work 👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Nice Job! And some groovy background music to boot. Far out!

Great Model and great job. 🤩🤩🤩

Your English is Great! Thank you for your great videos.

Awesome!

Great process. You did very total in every details.

She's surely a unique F-16. You've done a fine job keeping her memory alive

Beautiful build. So glad you were able to recover the footage. Thank you for sharing. Stay safe yourself.

Beautiful paint job!

Another awesome build, and I would just like to say love your attitude towards life it is refreshing!

So good! That's just what I was going for.

Another great build. Thanks for allowing us to model with you. “Always with a smile”

Fantastic job! Just love your videos. Cheers from Slovakia 🙂

It’s 50 years since I made a model Aircraft. Watching your videos makes me want to start again. Plus all the new great gear! Please keep up this fantastic work. Your authenticity is inspiring!

Hi. I'm a new subscriber to your channel. Wow, your movies are so easy to watch. I'm a quite new model builder and I have already learnt so much from these. Thank you so much for your channel.

nice work, your English is very excellent. Cheers from America

très bel oiseau, déco très sympa et originale.Bravo

Awesome! Love it, great build and pleasure to watch. Thanks

Amazing! You’ve inspired me to pull out a plane model that’s been in my garage forever un-made.

Always love watching your builds!

As always Alex another top end build, coupled to a great video, thanks for sharing.

I enjoyed the video this f-16 f-86 saber detail nice jet.

I'm glad to hear that you could recover the material from your broken harddrive. Such a nice build! Great job, Alex. Cheers!

nice build, thanks for sharing!!!

Hi Alex. I watch and enjoy your videos all the time....your models look great! I just saw that you are a Police Officer in Portugal. I have been on in California for 35 yrs and am retiring in June. Also, I am half Portuguese and still have relatives in the Azores. Keep up the good work and keep your head down! Chris Vlamis

Have just found your channel, this is awesome work.

Beautiful job!

Beautiful !

An absolutely stunning build Alex with that colour scheme

Brilhante

So happy for you that you got that hard drive recovered. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻👍🏻🙃🙃

That is a very cool colour scheme!

Very nice build. Love the paint scheme. Keep safe and keep well 👍

great works！

An amazing work as always.. I love your devotion to detail !!

Great work!!! Love your builds, have a nice day and stay safe :) and, by the way, i'm using my nose to unblock the phone when wearing gloves, so try it next time :)))))))

Great work, that's a nice kit..

Excelente trabalho, como sempre. Eu apenas faço 2.ª Guerra Mundial à escala 1/48. Duas sugestões quanto à cola e betume (gosto dos termos portugueses). Há muitos anos atrás havia nas drogarias um líquido chamado xilol que utilizávamos como cola para plástico. Há uns meses atrás encontrei xilol num site que indico abaixo. É uma poupança "descomunal". O litro de xilol não ultrapassa os 7,00€. Já tenho cola para muito, muito tempo. Quanto ao betume, eu tenho uma receita que funciona, mas é preciso dias de "cura". Mistura-se xilol com bocados finos de plástico ou plástico em pó resultante do desbaste de peças de plástico, até consegui uma pasta com pouca fluidez. Depois do plástico completamente "derretido" utiliza-se com qualquer betume mas como disse, tem um inconveniente para quem tem pressa, demora dias até ficar completamente sólido. Lixa-se e eu costumo depois de aplicar Mr Surfacer 500 e volto a lixar. Fica impecável. Concluí um I-16 da Eduard, estou a acabar um Dewoitine D.520 da Tamiya, estão em fase de montagem MC.205 Veltro da Hasegawa, Me.163 Komet da DML/Dragon (o Schleuch-Schlepper da CMK está concluído), V2 da Mauve e o trator Hanomag SS100, e de raiz estou a fazer o transportador (Meillerwagon) da V2 baseado no Meillervagon da Takom à escala 1/72 (basta multiplicar por 1,5 as dimensões à escala 1/72). Um abraço. www.restaurarconservar.com/Xileno-Xilol

Man I really think you should build the Queen Anne's revenge!!

Ficou lindo as usual.... Bom trabalho keep going Alex.

Absolutely stunning building, Alex. Your technique is absolutely brilliant. Have a nice day and stay safe. Have a nice day. Aleš

Great kit I make it the Dutch version. And for a italeri a good one

Absolutely brill alex

Nice build as always alex

Amazing. Like.

very nice build 👍👌

Hi Alex. Nice build. Good to see you back. Stay safe and take care. Regards

Alex... Mas que coisa linda 😳😳😳 Super show! Maravilhoso!!! Parabéns 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 e olha que esse kit tá longe de ser bom 😆😆😆

THAT'S A LOVELY Job on Your PAF F-16..👏🏻👏🏻🤗🤗👍👍

Nice build.. I build this kit. Too. Honestly I don't like the italeri box but if you say so a little bit of work

Cool 😎😎😎😎

beautiful livery and of course you did a great job on a not so fun to build kit. But I guess we all have our reasons to do what we do. Congrats!

Parabéns Alex , mais um trabalho excelente. Grande abraço .

Muito legal!!!!!!

Crazy (Joke und big smile) good work..

Parabéns por mais esta excelente obra, ficou com uma apresentação muito boa e fora do normal. Abraço

Hello from Portland, Oregon, United States Alex. I hope you are well and are staying safe my friend. :-)

muto bem obrigado

Great looking kit Alex 👍 Does this kit have also the Dutch decals Be safe

Mmmh. I have the same kit in my stash. I think I have to build it soon. Thanks for sharing. Well done

Good Job 👌🏿

About the only thing I did different was add weight to the nose and of course just the US decals. I wasn't sure if it was going to be a tail sitter. Lovely build.

parabens Primo. Abraco Alexandre de Ataide.

Out of all the 1/48 F-16's, Tamiya's is the best, then Hasegawa's, Italeri's is one of the oldest kits out there and show's its age compared to the Tamigawa's kits. At least Hasegawa keeps updating their kits with a new sprue of parts, Italeri really hasn't done any updates to theirs except for the decal options, Kinetics kits are closely to those of Tamiya's but they have their own style but if you take your time they too are very nice kits, again Italeri's are more of a weekender kit then compared to the others.

Que belleza! , felicitaciones,, he extrañado tus videos. ¿Todo bien?

Good work. Bom trabalho.

Great work. I was wondering how do you clean your models from dust. :)

😲

Can you do a 1/350 scale battel ship yamato

Oh well done Alex🎉good job. It is interesting to see the beautiful colour schemes of aircraft. I'm building the Belgium airforce 50 year anniversary F16 with a spitfire painted on its back. In 1/72 scale.

Mais um ótimo filme que vou guardar! ( Algum dia o Alex ainda há de vender os filmes das suas construções a quem quiser ficar para sempre documentado com os mesmos. Estes do RU-vid, ou outros... ) Para iniciados e ''azelhómetros'' como eu, teria interesse, acho!! Ora o F-16 de Portugal foi obviamente uma excelente ideia!!! Algum dia ainda irá construir alguma versão de Israel pelas particularidades dessas versões que somente eles têm... Obrigado Alex pelo muito que nos dá e ensina!!!

Oi, Alex, é sempre um prazer ver os seus vídeos, aqui da parte desta sénior modeller. Acho é que a FAP, não devia andar a fazer provas de TT na lama, com um "veículo " tão caro.!!! kkkkkk Não leve a mal.!! Um abraço!!

The F-86 looks like W-winged F-4U in some views 😀. Nice build anyway 👍

Trabalho espectacular! Qual o azul que usou? Abraço

Hello Alex. Today is Star Wars day. "May the 4th be with you."

bem agora falta o f-86 sabre e o fiat gr-91nos jatos , depois as tantas o p-38 lightning, o spitfire, o vaught f4u corsair ...

Só um pequeno detalhe, acho que há lavagens a mais. Já reparei que há um grupo de pessoal que gosta de ver um avião "bem sujo". Se reparar na foto do "Falcão" real não nota tanto "grime". Não sou nenhum expert e já há alguns anos que não "toco na chicha".... e só brinquei com um aerógrafo (de acção simples, a massa era curta) nos 4 últimos modelos que conclui, Me-262, FW-190, Me-109 G e He-219, tudo a 1/48. Continue com bons modelos, sou consumidor ávido, desde o Vietname. Bem haja !

This 10 seconds cement is somethink like tamiya extra thin. Btw nice build :-)

Beautiful build once again! How did you do the transparent green part inside the canopy above the gauges? Stay safe and nice day to you!

Superb! Silk purse from sow's ear😎. Is that a Bartsharp 180s airbrush? How do you find it? Cheers Paul (in NZ)

What do you think of Italeris kits Alex? I have two of them: 1:48, F-22 and F-35. I'm worried they're going to be a ball ache to build. I've also got some Hasegawa models (Spitfire and Lancaster) they seem to be excellent, are they as good as Tamiya kits?

Which brand of paint did you use? they seem awesome

Sir hi, as usual a well built model, which oil wash did you use ?

Where did you get that resin seat?

Existe algum kit ou decais do F-84 da Força Aérea Portuguesa?

She's a masterpiece! A thought just ran through my head. What if the image was reversed and you could build a model of the the Sabre with the same F-16 on top of the sabre! That would make a great pair!

what is wrong with kinetic if i may ask? im building their f104g and its a pretty good kit imho

You’re making a great job of that, but it doesn’t look that good a kit moulding wose, certainly not anything Tamiya needs to worry about..
