Pierpaolo Posted August 16, 2020 Author Share Posted August 16, 2020 Hi to all! I finally returned to work on the Corsair after a long break due to work and the suffocating heat that exhausted my strength. Since the last update I've finished the riveting, glued the wings and started the paint job. I used AK real color and a new H&S Evolution airbrush for the first time, I am very happy with both. I have to correct both the gray and the blue, the flaps are only dry fitted 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
