  1. Hiya Oz,

    Maybe a bit late but I`ve just come across this post of some of your earlier work and it is fantasic,....well done mate. I especially like the Albacore but they are all absolute corkers!!!!

    What colour did you use for the Olive Drab on your Corsair Mk.I,......can you remember?

    Cheers

    Tony

    Hi Tony... Blast from the past..!

    Sorry though, I can't remember which Olive Drab, far to long ago...!

    Thanks all for the comments

  2. This is probably my favorate kit of all time. Goes together beautifully with some great details OOB. I've built two with another six in the stash with a couple of dangerboy and one KMC wing fold sets..

    All will be FAA, just waiting to move house later in the summer, will have a dedicated modeling room in the new place and will be cracking these open...

    Hope they turn out as nicely as yours has

  3. nice work, well done!

    I have to admit I've never soldered PE before, looking at how nice yours came out I may have to get me a good iron as well!

    The engine should detail up nicely!

    Me neither.. always used glue before, but I think I may just be converted... read on...

    Cleaned up last nights work

    And then cracked on with the cockpit/cabin

    And the console

    Then I started to look at the skid assembly that is all white metal. This looked problematic as it was heavily flashed and bent out of shape...

    So, with my new found soldering skills, I built the skids out of brass tubing...

  4. I'll join in as well if you don't mind..

    I have a few non-Injection moulded kits, resin, vac-form, white metal and this one took my fancy..

    The kit consists of etch, White metal and resin with vac-formed glazing

    The majority seems to be etch that will need soldering, something I have never really mastered, so have been reading up and have watched a fair few YouTube tutorials.. so fingers crossed..!!
