| Weathering on F-18 Chippy Ho, others? I just got the F-18 "Chippy Ho" 2001 model. I'm very impressed with the weathering that is applied to this model. None of the other dragon models that I have are weathered. Does anyone know of any other dragon models that have weathering? | |||||||||||||

Welcome to the Forum slammin. You have pictures to post of your "Chippy Ho" F-18 ? I think that is the #50024 VFA-195 Dambuster one right? There is a #50038 VFA-195 nose art one by Dragon but i don't think it's out yet. Be cool to see it. JP | ||||||||||||||

| Re: Weathering on F-18 Chippy Ho, others? Slammin, Hey there. Welcome to the forum. Isn't the Chippy Ho F-18 one of Dragon's very early models? Might this have been a one off thing like the pilots figures in the first F-16? I've got a handful of Dragon jets and I don't recall any of them being weathered. | |||||||||||||

| Re: Weathering on F-18 Chippy Ho, others? I'm at work, so I can't take any pictures right now. These are two images that I got off of aiken's airplanes site. The first is one version of this airplane:DRW50024- no weathering The second is the model I have (except mine came with bombs) DRW50056 You can see the weathering on the panel lines. | |||||||||||||

| Re: Weathering on F-18 Chippy Ho, others? The Chippy Ho is my favorite and the weathering is just perfect. The Black TOP GUN F-18 (redeemable with 100 Draggin points) is also weathered, though mine isn't too noticeable. | |||||||||||||
