Academy 1/72 F4U-1 Corsair

[Dave The Chef]

Here's another quick one for my 1/72 pacific region builds - started it last Tues. Used Tamiya paints throughout pretty much - should have it dusted off tomorrow

Oh man that looks great! The light colored wash for the panel lines really set it off.

Another speed demon, anyone put a radar gun on this one to clock it?

NICE! I like the faded fabric sections.

Regards,

 

[Dave The Chef]

Thanks very much guys, these little speedsters are fun for me to try out new things you know and it's a cheap kit so if things go wrong....

 

[Adam]

Good Lord Sir! I like what you've done with the paint.

Dave, I don't know what I'm more jealous of, the time you have to build these gems or the skill you show when you build these gems.

 

[Dave The Chef]

Thanks chaps
Well here we are then -

Will be doing this scheme again a couple of times no doubt with different aircraft so some good lessons learned here with this one. Enjoy!

 

[MrT]
