Dreamsof51 Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 I was recently asked by a friend if I could refinish a model he has to represent the FG 1D Corsair he was the head mechanic on for about five years. The model is a very large scale representation of "Marines Dream". Its one of those big toy types with the folding wings and working landing gear etc. I'm going to open the fuselage and refinish the interior to represent Skyboss which had the armor removed and a jump seat installed complete with blue tinted windows for the passenger. The real issue on this build is the markings. The stars and bars are not standard in scale or location. This airplane was painted in the days before period correct restorations was the norm. For example the cockpit and gear wells are gloss white. The markings also include a rendition of Yosemite Sam with pistols pulled. My question is, has anyone every done decals for this aircraft? Even though its far from a standard scale, I'd rather start from a known pattern if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
