Amazing weathering, amazing build. It is builds like this that inspire the rest of us.

BAD AZZ!!! Love the weathering and the chipping layers, and the replacement wing. Just the kit and build as a whole, is exceptional and inspirational.

Thank you very much!  Building a Tamiya Corsair was not an idea that I embraced initially but I'm glad I got out of my comfort zone of Late War Luftwaffe subjects and tried something different.  It was fun working with different shades of blue rather than my normal greens, greys and browns.

Thank you!  Not being familiar with Corsairs, I had a lot of help on this build from the very knowledgeable community here at LSP. And the kit itself is amazing... truly one of the pinnacles of injection-molded models available right now.
