olgerd83 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Hi guys, want to share with you my last finished model - Revell's F4U-1A Corsair The model is very old, about 1970's, inaccurate and poor detailed. However I had to make this model, because my client didn't want to buy a Tamiya's (that kit was too expensive for him) better one and provided me with that kit. Anyway, the model is completed and the client is happy - this is the most important thing for me )) The build was almost OOB with minor improvements which you may notice on photos. Hope you enjoy it. rafju, Bill Cross, Sammy and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Cross Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 (edited) Nice scratch-building. Now reward yourself and buy one of the Tamiya Corsairs.... Edited September 12, 2017 by Bill Cross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dodgem37 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Who knew one didn't have to spend over $100.00 to have a nice Corsair? Well done. Great show. Sincerely, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kendzior Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Excellent, pure pleasure to look at such a fantastic paint-job. Must say, that I fully understand your approach and respect you've shown to such an old kit. Would be very hard to correct all - or even most of - the shape or detail issues in this kit, but the gorgeous paintwork has fully covered all those defects. Very, very well done, congratulations!
