Hi,
With they year rapidly running out I managed to finish this Corsair off before 2017 is with us.
It's Tamiya so easy to build. I used some Decals from Barracuda for 'eightball' Dangerous Dan from VMF 213 on Guadalcanal.
Its painted in Gunze acrylics thinned with lacquer I freehanded the demarkation line on the fuselage. Weathering is reasonably restrained a bit of staining on the underside and some pastel representing dust on the upper surfaces. Corsairs on the Islands did have a hard life but were maintained so I went for moderate wear and tear. I make my own stuff for this so its probably not as good as the MiG stuff.
I did chip the wing root and cowl area by making some salmon pink primer painting this then adding the top coat colour and then scratching through with care nothing represents chipping like chipping...
Hope you like it..
Cheers
