Privateer Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Hello All, This is my first post here. I've been modeling for over 40 years , but have not finished anything in a couple of years,and this is only the second plane I've completed in a long time. I'm rusty and out of practice so be gentle with your critiques please. I built this mostly out of the box using only Barracudas landing gear. I tried some new techniques, mainly the hairspray and salt weathering. I know there are mistakes and really built this to try new stuff. Comments and criticism are welcome.

Shaka HI Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 I like the weathering, too. The fuel/oil stains look a bit too contrived (the sides), but overall, it looks very good. And that figure looks real! Vandy 1 VX 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasta 14 addict Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Welcome to this great bunch of modeling people. Wow, now that's a real dirty Corsair you got there, and that is just the way a Corsair need's to be, wheatered and dirty. I like it allot, nice work.
