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.

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.

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.

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.

Has anyone got any information on how to go about building a vac form kit. I’ve not yet purchased one so any recommendations are welcome. In that regard as well. Many thanks Llyr.

Hi. There are certainly mates / fellow modelers in here better qualified to answer your question / provide tips than me - but, for a start:
A. Here's an article/build-report I found interesting and useful, by someone who had just built his first vac:
scaledsmall.blogspot..o-a1-balilla_25.html
B. You will certainly find, well, not hundreds, but a few vacform-kit builds here on Scalemates, and these can be helpful - e.g.:
Supermarine 224 - The First Spitfire | Album by J35J (1:72)
McDonnell XP-67 Moonbat | Album by J35J (1:72)
Saab Global Eye 1:72 | Album by DuperScale (1:72)
ATR-72-600 | Project by chrispisme (1:72)
MyAlbum | Album by chrispisme (1:72)
1/48 CP-140 Aurora | Album by chrispisme (1:48)
etc.
C. A modeler who consistently builds vacform kits is Gabriel Stern - and his personal site is: wingsofintent.blogspot.com/
You will have to search around his site a bit - but here are just some examples of his work with vacforms:
wingsofintent.blogsp..lse-false-false.html
wingsofintent.blogsp..win-beech-172nd.html
wingsofintent.blogsp..enger-transport.html
... and many many others...
I do hope other answers, by more experienced modelers in this field than me will follow, re your question - cheers! - A.
