Watching with interest🙂

Interesting weathering! I like the mottled red hull parts. Did you use a sponge or splatting with a bruch?

Michael Kohl
Convincing paint and weathering job.

NLAWScametovisit
this is really really impressive finish and texture

Igor Zhuravlev
Oh, it's just the start. Looking at the references, I think I'll have to use a lot of oils

Watching

Alec K
Very cool build, love those worn effects.

Igor Zhuravlev
These are so far coming from the airbrush only. I hope to achieve some more with oils, reference photos show some stains on the primer

Michael Kohl
I gotta follow this

Spanjaard
me too

I agree ! Top notch!

Michael Kohl
You achieved 100% the effect I am striving for with my Mig23. Gorgeous.

Good luck with this one. I really enjoyed this kit! Make sure you install the right wing tips unlike me!

Sergio Ordonez
Thanks you, mates.
Yes, Vincent, the short wingtips are installed. I have been researching photos of this Craft for months: being an American subject is a total enigma for me. At least,for the Mustang, the engine was a Merlín....
By the moment, although It has some assembly issues, appears to be an easy one. These photos resume 4 manhours, while I expected a total of 12-15.

Mr D
The Revell Corsair is not a bad kit by all accounts, l was watching reviews on what one to get, it was between Tamiya n Revell, l did get Tamiya in the end, as you described few fit issues, but nothing that can't be easily fixed.
I quite like the problem solving in building.....it adds extra level achievement when finished, best of luck..... doing well so far 👍👍👍

Sergio Ordonez
Thanks, Mr D: really, all comments I inspected regarding this kit were terrible. But, as in the case of the Fulmar,, I found a rather correct kit. It has issues, like anything in this life. But I am very surprised of the fact that, having expent only the half of the time I expected for the kit, I am too Closer to the final step.

Sergio Ordonez
8 hours.I am begining to think that this model is an 'easy' one, bearing in mind that I've expent more than 16 hours on an old Airfix Firefly 5 and is on the first steps.

Sergio Ordonez
In the end, this one has been a total of 9.5 manhours, 2.5 less than expected. I am afraid that my next Revell one (ex-Frog Gannet), will need much more...

Michael Kohl
I love your scale 1:43 stuff. Anxious to see where thus is going.

Llyr
I am fairly new to scale modelling so any constructive criticism is welcome. I wanted the plane to look as if it had been flighting for some time over the ocean by using a white and a silver dry brush. The cockpit detail was good and the rigging on the back is close to what the real thing had but I struggled to get the wire to go down to the body from the middle of the horizontal cave so instead both come of the vertical tail on the back of the model.

Sergio Ordonez
I did finished the Corsair IV by Revell yesterday. Your approach to color fading gave you a great finish, I really love It. My approach was totally opposed, so I find that that yur blue finish is perfect while mine has a strange Violet colour.
Really beautiful and ashtonishing job.

Llyr
I've had a look at your project it looks great. I used Humbrol 34/11 to give the plane a whethered look and Humbrol 104 blue.

Sergio Ordonez
I've been restricted to Vallejo acrylics (I have a little daughter and live usually in a flat), so I have used a little imagination: the base is Game Color electric blue, two upper coats with Night Blue and Turkish Blue and a wash in light grey. I get the faded and used tone I wanted but I think the blue get a strange colour (depending on lights) and darker shade.
Really, I do love your job and I am enjoying a lot the Sporting of diferences between the Corsair IV and your American model.
