corsaircorp Posted May 5, 2020 Author Share Posted May 5, 2020 Hello Dears, Well here's the model and its clones !! So far, I'm satisfied ! On the right, Eduard, center Tamiya and then ICM And on the other front... Let's sing Shim Shim Shimney !! I used to think that the mustang was a WW II aircraft.... But this one seem to love trenches.... Gents, I'm really crazy, since I feel eager to start 3 other Mustang... This Eduard Royal box is a treat of a kit... And load of unused part to feed other kits !! I wait the F-6D feverishly !! I hope that they will issue a Korean war one... I mean "Julie, Scotty and ?" Really sad story indeed, But I want to reproduce this aircraft as a tribute... Have a great modelling time !! Sincerely. CC 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsaircorp Posted May 8, 2020 Author Share Posted May 8, 2020 Well Guys !! 2 days without coming on the forum... It has scarcely happened for me, but very hard job these days... Still I spend my evening on my models but as I'm tired there are not significant progresses... Whatever !! That's life !! I think that I catch the Mustanga virus... Here's a pic of the -A, 2 days ago... Shimed a bit is'nt it ?? The polishing of Da Beast has improved a lot !! Ordnance for the -A, I saved the Bazookas from the Academy P-47N But I think that this will go back to the surplus, just have a look at the Eduard one... Amazing... still I'm creating (copying) as far as I can, the Eduard parts in order to improve the TamiCM ones.. If you followed my Yak thread, you can guess the answer... Wich control stick is the ICM one ??? Infinite Cink mark strike again... And I use the PE fret to the max... The 3 next Mustang -D are defined.... I must control myself and make some Corsairs... And Sea Furies... And Phabulous Phantom... And so on... Take care Gents and have a great modelling week end !! Sincerely. CC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsaircorp Posted May 11, 2020 Author Share Posted May 11, 2020 Hello Dears ! Look at that !! 15 parts for a wheel well !! But that's nice.... But mind yourself, there's a bug on the destructions... Parts #61 and #62 are inverted... Other than that, still the kit is a treat !! It change from my lunacies.... A bit of respite... Take care Gents and have fun in building models !! Sincerely.

corsaircorp Posted May 11, 2020 Author Share Posted May 11, 2020 Aaaand Bim !!! Punked, I'm back to my ponies... So, this one will enter the paint booth soon !! Improvement of the ventral scoop !! The goal here is that these ICM Mustangs cannot be recognized... Lots of sanding then !! This pic can be called "A blacksmith backyard in 1946..." And now Gents let me know.. What do you think about my clowning cloning... The Tamiya and the ICM benefits of the Eduard generosity !! I even add some spars near the rear wheel, just to see that there is something on there !! Ok Gents !! Have a great modelling time !! See you soon for more... Take care !! Sincerely. CC 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsaircorp Posted May 16, 2020 Author Share Posted May 16, 2020 Hello Dears, I did'nt have a great deal done these days... But the first of the -D is about to be buttoned up ! Last sight of the internals... It's the Eduard one, I should wear a bit ? should I ? Take care Lads !! Sincerely. CC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggles87 Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 That’s a really good looking cockpit. I would wear the floor on both sides leading to the rudder pedals to show the wood under the black. John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corsaircorp Posted May 17, 2020 Author Share Posted May 17, 2020 Hello Dears, I did a lot today, but nothing really worth of a pic... Toying with PE parts !! Then the internals are almost done on the 3 -D Look at the undersides... I'll try to improve the wheel wells a bit.. And guess which is the one who refused its wheel well ??? Good night Gents !! Take care, and thanks for your support. Sincerely. CC 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corsaircorp Posted May 28, 2020 Author Share Posted May 28, 2020 Thank you Spad ! SWMBO say "You're welcome !!" No no Dears, I'm not ruining the windshield... Or at least, I try to not to !! It's just creating a look alike deflector... In CBI they oftenly have field made deflectors... And Mrs Virginia got one.... Sincerely.

corsaircorp Posted May 28, 2020 Author Share Posted May 28, 2020 Well well... I saayyyy !! Infinite Cink Mark will be corrected soon !! Amazingly enough... The Tamiya has been the most difficult one to close up... I know, I stuffed a bit of improvement in it... Here we are !! And the -A will receive a real gunsight instead of this blob of plastic... I enhanced the panel with a more prominent bumper !! Glazing are glued bit by bit... Paint booth is nearing... Take care and have fun in building models... Thanks for popping in my theads...

Biggles87 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Some production line there CC. A friend got a part time job in a model shop when he retired. It was actually the model section of a large toy shop and they were really pleased to have him, because normally the people just rotated around the sections but he actually knew what he was selling and a few of his colleagues actually started taking an interest in modelling. Stay safe at work. John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
