KingTiger435 Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 After having finished my wildcat I immediately started on my next FAA project. I enjoyed making the Martlet and its camo so I decided my next project would be a birdcage corsair (Tamiya 1:72 specifically). I got printscale decals ready and it will most likely be Corsair F.Mk.1 JT150. Cockpit Should be quite a quick build, similarly to the Martlet which I finished in six days. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingTiger435 Posted October 5, 2022 Author Share Posted October 5, 2022 I've had a very busy week so not much work done since. I have fixed the tail gear bay to be that "salmon pink" colour and started painting the underside. I have also made the engine I honestly remembered the corsair being bigger, it's barely larger than a martlet! More progress soon, my week isn't busy now so plenty of workbench time. I am however going on holiday to Spain from Oct. 8 to 17, so no modelling then. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gondor44 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Don't forget to clip the wing tips as I am fairly sure the FAA birds had clipped wings Gondor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
