F4U-1D Corsair Tamiya 1/48

[Lucke.stz]

Hello guys,

I´ll do some heresy to my scale, and build this model on 1/48, it is to a client

The building will be out of the box, with almost any aftermarket...

let´s to the pics

The box:

Trees:

Building the cockpit

working on the gauges, the Panel don´t have any detail of the gauges, so you must to use the decals, to have some better finish, I cut out the decals and glue one, by one...

looks good:

I can´t resist, the kit is so good, so I have to put this PE Eduard SET to belts...

by now just this !

Thanks to see

Very nice. Mind telling me how you cut out each individual dial for the control panel?

Looking great so far. Judging from what we've seen of your work in 1/144 this 1/48 will be amazing!

He cut the decals out and glued one by one.

That's what it said atleast

Nice work so far Lucas. This kit must seem huge compared to your normal tiny work!

 

[Bucksnort101]

Gotcha Seen some people use some expensive little punches to punch out each individual dial nice and cleanly so I though maybe you had a cheaper method. Sounds like you do
Impressive 1/144 scale stuff!!!!
