Fiddled a bit more on the Corsair...
Now, as you can see, these are some serious marks on the legs, on some, can even see the daylight through them! So, Wayne....(and other), would you still use superglue or?

Thems bad marks them is! What a place to have ejection pin marks! Hope you get them filled old boy, either putty or superglue methinks.
Me, I would put a small drop of superglue in each then use a fine file to shape it then sand them smooth...

Have to say I would go with Wayne as the filler my chip out particularly with a shallow depression like that.

Wish I could hand you some of my red body filler, it's nice and soft to shape and sticks in the hole like glue. Works great for them little pesky holes.

Cheers lads!
Who makes that red filler?
Done a tad more, next the intakes and the rest of the wings.
This week, hopefully order them belts, plus resin cockpit for the Buccaneer...

Go to your local auto body repair shop, ask to see the tube of red filler he uses to fill paint chips before painting. It's just a more fluid version of Bondo. Be cautious of using Too much at once. I applied an area about 2mm thick and it softened the kit plastic. it's great for thin filling because it doesn't shrink up when it dries.
*You might see if they will give you the tail end of a tube for a couple of dollars?
