Excellent job, Beautiful!

 

[Catch22]

Thanks Jan and VB!

I left the decals off of the props as I've seen many photos of -1s without the symbols.

Excellent work. Glad you like how this one came out despite the other one. I still think both look good, although I would agree with you that this is the better one.

You seemed to have finished the two of them pretty quickly.

 

[Catch22]

Thanks!

The joys of having summer off I guess, but the 1/32 did take me a while. I'm actually finished my Avenger as well, but I need bombs for a future project, so I'm waiting until a kit arrives in the mail which has more bombs to determine what's going to go inside of the Avenger.

Very nice finish on this Corsair. Beautiful. You should be proud. I'm a geek for the Corsair. You did it justice, IMO.

Thanks Sweb, I'm also a Corsair geek!

Very nice. The shots in the sun work to your advantage too, really brings out the colour!
