I really enjoy what you're doing here!!! Just stumbled upon this!! I was thinking the same route, well sort of, for this kit! I took will backdate my -4 Helldiver into a -3 as it's the route to go without having to add the PE flaps!! All the other slight changes are as You've done, a bit of Modeling!! Me likes, Me Likes A bunch!! Go, and Go, and Go!!! Alfonso

Well, what can I say? Not that it matters anyway! But... after all the bashing Kitty hawk received now people are looking for their kits! LoL It cracks me up!!! I Wish this company still was flourishing as I do some others too. Insert those gone... here. Glad to have got the Kingfisher when I did. Wished to get some others but, they're gone! Sigh! As usual, still not back at the bench yet, but still appreciate this hobby and those that care to cater to the large scales. Ok, Rant over!! Alfonso

Maaan... Can of worms!!! A -5 would start with a -4 and add all that became a -5, whole 'nother aircraft, but, start with a -4 center section, which all you got is the "Trump" that poops, area to begin with! Yeah Good luck with that! LoL Seriously, to do an actual -2, Nightfighter out of the Tamiya " Birdcage" is the way to go. Forget about doing a -5N. That's just an entirely different and comprehensive airframe! Cowling, engine, exhaust, accessory section area, under wing transition, cockpit.... Wing panels without fabric, etc.... Yeah. Whole 'nother Animal!!!!

1/18 Scale Blue Box F4U-1A Corsair Modification
Kaeone57 replied to JayW's topic in Works in Progress
About a thousand times!!! LoL My favorite part about that pic is the replacement patch in natural metal behind the cowl flaps and the fact that "She" might be a 3/4 toner! LoL Alfonso- 1,636 replies

Kaeone57 replied to Dennis7423's topic in LSP Discussion
Uhh Hmmm, excuse me...clearing my throat... Big Matt, Matthew, not however you spelled it, LoL...did a GREAT job on the J Rutman P-51B! Now, back on topic, I'll wait and see what happens. There's been quite a few, on here that have done justice to "make" a P-51B and I agree with those methods... ALL of them! Do I want/wish for a simpler approach... Yes as I am getting older and the paint booth is a calling!!! So much more to say, but, not really....Bring on a P-51B NO MATTER WHAT!!!! Not gonna be at some s..t to death, y'all do that already, long line for that! LoL Alfonso -

1/18 Scale Blue Box F4U-1A Corsair Modification
Kaeone57 replied to JayW's topic in Works in Progress
Nice Jay, Nice!!! Not not picking at all just reminders in case you don't already know... Not sure if you noticed but Corsair .50's openings are not @ centerline of outer wing panels as wrongly depicted at times. They are "straight" to ground, meaning they slightly taper downwards towards leading edge. You can see it on the KD431 pic you posted. Also the wing fuel tank hatch is in the wrong position and should be moved inward one panel over. Don't forget the drains either, and the wooden anti stall wedge on starboard wing.. LoL Rock it Jay!!!- 1,636 replies

BTW.... My poor ass self just scored a Helldiver at a very decent price! Could it be better, Yes!!! Do I mind putting in the work to make it happen....NO!!! MODELING....TO INFINITY AND BEYOND! CRYING ABOUT WHATS WRONG AND NOT FIXING IT MYSELF...BE GONE!!! LOL Alfonso

I get it... In the "nowadays world" we want a "perfect" kit, since we have all this technology or whatever... My apologies, trying to do my best to get my point across and that may fail! But... "Us" modelers, though I haven't been one as much these past few years, but still... "We" worked with LESS, especially in this scale and rebuilt, re detailed, or not to "build what we wanted! In this day, and age, "We" are more than lucky that we have kits, kitted in 1/32 scale to begin with! Yeah, they can be better, yeah they should be Greater, but....SH.., WE HAVE THEM! I here from people, Modelers, that "Life is to short to build Sh..y Models...But, in this Scale, and anything Large Scale...If you want Accuracy...You gotta put in that work!!! My apologies, ranting.... Tangent, whatever but... At least we have an option too!? Build if you want, Add detail if you want, pass if you want...but... To just bash.... I'll pass! Well, unless it's a Kit, to kit, parts bash...then I'm all in... MMV... whatever, back to my poor ass hole in the ground... Peace Alfonso

1/18 Scale Blue Box F4U-1A Corsair Modification
Kaeone57 replied to JayW's topic in Works in Progress
NICE Jay, NICE!!! Well more than NICE but hopefully you get the praise as intended!? Only thing I would not pick on is the vent in the center rear fuselage, at the "bar" on the "star and bar" US marking. That's a later thing and not present on VF-17 birds!? Also the lack of the "hook on the sliding canopy rail" at rear bulkhead end, and the proper definition of the the recess at same junction to alow the sliding hood to sit properly in place! Not trying to be a D..k, just Corsair s..t. I'm sure you have your reasons, but you've gone so far and just wondering if all! GORGEOUS CORSAIR WORK IN ALL IT'S GLORY!! YOU ROCKED THIS!!!
