That's what I was thinking.

I’ve seen photos of some F-16s flying against Iran in that Have Glass scheme… might have to build one for my collection…

Ok... I took a look over in scalehobbyist and saw they have Tamiya lacquer Have Glass Grey V. I'm assuming that's a series 5 Have Glass Grey. Noted it was used on F-35s.

I'll check to see if my HobbyTown has it. Oh wait, they renamed it Turn 4 Toys & Hobbies. Apparently, the owner told me they lost the contract to HobbyTown.

AKInteractive also carries Have Glass Grey as well.

I found the have glass grey I have been looking for. Hobbylinc has True Colors Paint F-16 Have Glass Grey. Definitely matches the color that Medic posted on the F-16 and various photos of B-2 Stealth Bombers in that color. Time to break out the wallet…

I was going to say that Tamiya Lacquer has the correct Have Glass V paint.

Yeah, I was going to stop at my LHS in Clinton first to see if they have it in their Tamiya lacquer line. If not, I'll order MRP Have Glass Grey.

Drove all the way to 4 Turn Toy & Hobbies in Clinton after work and found it was closed. Reopen Friday at 11.
Sign says open on Thursday til 4. Got there at 3:30.

I'll try again over the weekend.

Such a cool plane...and really looking super... chair pulled..

A cracking build of a very cool subject Tom

Picked up Tamiya LP-84 Camo Grey/Have Glass Grey. Definitely too light. So....I decided to mix my own Have Glass Grey. Filled up an empty Model Master bottle with LP-84 Camo Grey (50% estimate), mix it with NATO Black (35%ish) and Flat Black (15%ish) and got this....




In a better lighting...




I'm satisfied since it looks pretty damn near close match to photo on the Viper kit above.
