Well, I“m not really that much of an airplane builder,but I have allways liked the Corsair and wanted to build one, so with the vacation comming up, 2 weeks without TV, internet etc. I decided to give it a try ... this is the result ... for better or worse
Feedback and inputs welcome!
It“s happy days for modellers...

Great job! The chipped paint looks realistic and well done. The only negatives I see are the glossy tires and prop. Maybe a oil wash over the wheel hubs would add more depth. Other wise a great show.

I think it came out real nice. You can also hit the tires with a little mig black smoke pigment. That will take off the shine. You really did justice to this aircraft.

I am frequently seen with blood shot eyes from staying up past my nap time to get the right colour scheme on my latest WWI model?
Nice job on that one. Other than what the other guys have mentioned it looks cool and is a very good build - especially if it is the first one in a long time.
Looks good Jan. Would be nice if you finished the piper cub also. There just happens to be a new campaign starting over on Model Geek just for the piper cub.
