Loic Posted July 27, 2014 Author Share Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) Many thanks my friends Edited July 27, 2014 by Loic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdthoresen Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Loic-Love the work so far. I appreciate your dedication to making it right. As far as the late parts, perhaps you and tin could offer the "early" and "late" options for those of us who have the old Revell or Trumpeter kits of the 1D; I know it was made for the Tamiya, but I would have a go at making it fit!Please keep the updates coming!THOR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loic Posted July 27, 2014 Author Share Posted July 27, 2014 Thnaks a lot THOR I am sure we will propose both as everything already exist for the later Mk (moulds, etc...) so why not offering both versions? Tim will have the final call on this anyway. Latest progress from today: Armor plate, hydrolic fuild and prop control ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loic Posted July 27, 2014 Author Share Posted July 27, 2014 ... and the final results (more or less) Still needs a layer of primer to check the parts (I run out and need to buy some tomorrow...) and possibly a few touch up and/or add on then it will be sent to Tim for casting.

Loic Posted July 28, 2014 Author Share Posted July 28, 2014 Hi guys, parts are now primed and cleaned up. I need to shot a few pics for instruction sheet and I will ship parts to Tim for casting tomorrow. I belive it was worth the rework but let you guys tell me what you think.

Anthony in NZ Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Any updates Loic? I was loving this, are you planning on the later Corsair set to be done through GM? Cheers Anthony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Peterpools Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Loic Looking forward to the Corsair update but it seems as if your photobucket account has exceeded it's bandwidth for the month. I ran inot that last year and decided to purchase the extra bandwidth for $2.99. Sure looks like it's a direct symptom pf posting your awesome work. Keep 'em coming Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
32tragic Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 nice work. Is this update applicable to the new 1A kit or just the earlier 1 (birdcage) kit? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loic Posted October 27, 2014 Author Share Posted October 27, 2014 Hello all, thanks for the kind words. Both versions of the kit are already available -1 / -1A. I have not yet checked if the kit fits OK within the -1A fuselage but I can see no reasons why it would not. HTH pg265 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
