Boyington's Bird - 1/72 Tamiya Corsair


Recommended Posts

Without a doubt, this is the best 1:72 Corsair I've ever seen. Well done Cookie - just an amazing demonstration of superb modelling skills. Consider my gob fully smacked!

 

Cheers,

Bill

I'm really having a hard time reconciling the fact that this is 72nd scale.... 

Exceptionally fine work and a masterpiece of weathering and attention to historical detail with the replacement port wing!!

Outstanding all around.   Today, you should win the internet!!

Bravo that man!!  🏆🏆👏

Stunning!

Really exceptional painting skills & very well planned out for each subsequent weathering stage. Excellently thought out, plus I'd mask those markings in the same order. These things do take some prior thinking & planning.

I find this inspiring & hope if I ever tackle this subject that I would aspire to this level.

Brilliant modelling & painting skills that show it can be done in The One True Scale!

Dang Cookie … How’d I miss this one. She looks incredible and you should be very proud. I do think Rolland N. “Ollie” Rinabarger flew 740 most of the time. However the planes were in a pool and Pappy always chose the worst one (maintenance or bad luck) so none of his pilots needed to.
