Album info

I recently completed this build for a "US Navy & Friends" Group Build on another site. This is the USS Bunker Hill boxing of Tamiya's Corsair, the one without the moto-tug and rockets.

Here's what I did for this project:
1/48 Tamiya F4U-1D #21 "Brooklyn Butcher," VMF-512, USS Gilbert Islands, July 1945.
Kit options used: drop tanks, rocket launcher stubs, extended flaps, folded wings, frameless canopy, short forward antenna, dorsal antenna, and tall tailwheel.
HGW textile/PE seatbelts.
Mike Grant instrument decals.
Ultracast exhausts and wheels (with diamond-tread tires).
Montex Masks and kit decals for the markings.
Scratchbuilt cockpit details: trim wheels, O2 line, map case, various bits and bobs.
Kit gunsight modified with parts from Quickboost.
Large ventral landing light on left wing eliminated.
Outboard wing fuel tanks eliminated.
Step in inboard right flap eliminated.
"Taped" gun ports with decal film.
Engine wired - including a modified ignition ring and spark plug terminals in the cylinders, at lea
