Very nice painting! What did you think of the Daco wings? I found them nice and thin but the 2 halves fit very poor to each other, especially at the tips.

That's very nice CL - Superb work on the NMF.
What did the AM wings offer? was it dropped flaps and slats?

Flap and Slat are single parts in Hasegawa and on the Dako kit, Hasegawa has made lot of rivet holes on wings, flap, slat and ruder, on the orginal non of this is riveted, is made from solid alu with maschining and acid-treat so all this holes must be closed or chanched the parts, that is was the kit can and a wishes you have on this kit.

Nice!
I stumbled across a photo this morning of the next generation of this. A Dutch F-16 and F-104...
