corsaircorp Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 As I send a kit to the RFI, must show another project... no ?? I started the Tony 3 or 4 years ago and Val was out from the attic today hope that @TonyTiger66 will appreciate Val too 2 dancing penguins waiting for the return of Percy ! Here's Val Both kits are Hasegawa, the Val will receive a CMK interior... Tony has already received some attention from the toecutter to include (Don't forget my son to include everyoooone !) Sorry I'also like Enter sandman ! To include I Sayyyyy this one And NO ! I will not represent the Kobayashi's tony. I will depict a Tony from the 68FG they were reguarly visited by the Jolly Rogers !

corsaircorp Posted February 28, 2018 Author Share Posted February 28, 2018 Hello dears, So, I started to clean up the resin parts and some painting ! That old CMK kits have huge resin plug and are so fragile ! And now... Guess what ?? SANDING !! Whatever the CMK kit is a great improvement beside the Hasegawa parts. The Val will enter in my Pearl Harbor serie ! The Tony will stand beside my John Blackburn's Corsair. Good Deal ! Have a nice modelling day. Sincerely.

corsaircorp Posted August 7, 2018 Author Share Posted August 7, 2018 Hello Dears, Painting and working on these internals…. Must say that's a changing from the interior green I will reproduce the Val of the Cpt Ema, since I think that an Ame Iro aircraft will be a must in a collection !! This one will go on my Pearl Harbor serie. More to come soon... Thanks for popping in ! Have a very good modelling time ! Sincerely. CC 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsaircorp Posted January 8, 2019 Author Share Posted January 8, 2019 Hello Dears ! This WING !! The size of the Val's wing is enormous !! I was thinking about folding it, but No ! May be if I do another one... Thanks for looking !! Sincerely. CC 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Law Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 Looks good. I'm up to the painting stage of my Val. I have had a problem with mine. Either I have a warped fuselage or it is builder error. My tail planes are not square with the wings. I also had problems fitting them because the holes were too small for the pins to fit into. So be careful how you get the fuselage together and check the tail planes fit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggles87 Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 I'll just squeeze into the front row and hope that Ian doesn't want his seat back. My wife has got so used to me collecting her unwanted items, that she offers me things which she thinks I might find useful. I like the Aotake, I still have a pot of the Modelmaster version.

Greg Law Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 I just noticed your Val is Revell. Hence the different colour plastic. Mine was Hasegawa , so it might be different. My tail planes were attached with two pins instead of the usual slot method. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Law Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 I'm pleased to hear my comments were still relevant. I got my kit years go when I was still in Queensland. Frankly I think my problem was self inflicted. Other than the elevator problem which was definitely a kit issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsaircorp Posted April 18, 2019 Author Share Posted April 18, 2019 Hello Dears Lever time !! These tiny little things are animated by their own life !!

My Cat always does... 😹 Very lovely thread, @corsaircorp! It’s nice to see how you’re enjoying this build. On 10/03/2018 at 02:14, corsaircorp said: I’m now addicted to flory ! Yes, I saw it on the video and it’s looks very useful and easy to use, too. Unfortunately, I don’t know where to find it in Russia.

corsaircorp Posted February 10, 2020 Author Share Posted February 10, 2020 Hello Dears, Sometimes, when I open my cabinet of curiosities and assorted lame ducks, I take a box... And restart on a waiting kit, My started kits are very patient, far more patient than SWMBO, and the kids, and the dogs and even the cats... Here's the @TheBaron, sorry Tony's dashboard... I use crystal clear to glue the film on the PE part, and Dang !! The bezels glasses are on... 2 birds with one stone ! I saw this in the National tattler... Look the way the martian is doing to get out unnoticed... Ah that tricky Martian... Well, see you later !! Sincerely. CC 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
