I suggest taking one of those Corsair kits and spend a few days..This is a fall together kit and you will enjoy the build.

Cheers

[Final VMF-211 Aircraft..1/48 F4U-1D]

This aircraft was flown by Marines in Ground support for Army in 1945 in Philippines.

This is the 1/48th Tamiya kit Gil mentions in his build below. Great Kit and a nice relief for some well engineered model.

Some basic stuff, Testors Spray Gloss Blue(Decanted),Mr Hobby Semi-Gloss (Decanted), Eduard Seatbelts, filled step in starboard dropped Flap.

Only color was Green in a couple of places. Uschi fine line used for Antennas

Thanks for Looking

[1/48 VMFA -211 F-35B "Wake Island Avengers"]

This is my next to last build for the VMF(A) -211. 

I had custom markings created for this aircraft as it belonged to the Commander.

I loved the RAM Decals from WOLFPACK...These were absolutely perfect

This was a very well engineered model and defects were self induced.

I didn't have the heart to load up the wings with racks. So I left her stealthy.

I have completed the Wildcat,Skyraider,Skyhawk,Harrier,and the F-35B.

The CF markings are a Little large on the tail but not detracting.

 

Last project for this group is the F4U-1D Corsair. Start Tonight

I wanted a little bit of a challenge after a Tamiya 1/72nd P-51

I got exactly what I asked for. Challenges

Vallejo Olive Drab and Tamiya rattle-can Camel Yellow colors were the only simple items. 

The basic parts all had flash,All need some sort of work

Struts needed trimming and pins inserted for support. Landing Gear parts were all needing trimmed and adjusted and I think I still missed the mark.

Rigging was all steel wire to simulate the metal braces

I will say the resin engine cylinders needed minimal cutting.

I did add Albion tubing and copper plug wires

Tons of stuff but just posted Final results

Cheers
