Snapped this one up as well on ebay for a few pennies.... Thought that I'd do Kenneth Walsh's F4U-4 "White-13", should it be some time over on the PTO/GB....
Not too many F4U-4's saw combat in WWII, even less numbered "13"! 8)

Nice decals Jan, but I'm partial to the Death Rattlers one.

109ROAMING · May 28, 2009

I'm with Cory ,nice decals Jan -although I'm not a big fan of the later mark Corsairs excluding the F4U-6 I brought yesterday

109ROAMING · May 28, 2009

Here she is mate all for $12

FAA boxart and decals also RNZAF decals too! don't know if Il be able to use them though

Catch22 · May 28, 2009

*settles down*

I don't know why it's labelled an F4U-6, as it's a British -1D.

The F4U-6 was actually re-designated the AU-1, as it was an attack plane.

Catch22 · May 28, 2009

Nice but though, it'll be cool!

109ROAMING · May 28, 2009

I thought it was the usual -1D ,maybe theres parts to make a -6?

You know hasegawa make a AU-1 in 1/48?

Catch22 · May 28, 2009

I didn't know that. I'll have to look out for it. I'd like to make the whole Corsair family!

picked up a 21st century Bf109 for me and another A6M3 for Terry for £1.99 each

Which 109 Karl the F-2/F-4 or the G-14? I got me an F-2/F-4 but would like at least 1 or 2 more.... scarce as rockin' horse sh!t over here mate...and rather pricey too, WHEN and if you can find one!

Spot on Red One! I feel a kite from 'ErPrG 53', 1944, coming on!
Wayne, I'll dig some stuff out and e-mail it; got loads of colour profiles of the 56th, and colour shots in another book. Might get it done tonight (Thursday), if not it'll be by the weekend. Don't know if you'll need it , as you'll probably know already, but I have the M.I.S. build and review (2 builds) for this kit, pointing out any minor errors, and which cockpit floor is which for the various block numbers. Shout if you want that too.

Terry, the T-bolt stuff is at your leisure, I wont build the big mother for a little while yet mate!....thanks for your efforts anyway!!

Got my 1/48 Academy Hawker Hunter F.6 today for the No. 74 Squadron.... Nice looking kit I have to say!

rochie · May 29, 2009

G-14 Wayne, was trawling the local branches of the shop today all they had was zero's and 1 G-14 !!!!

Lucky13 · May 29, 2009

Got my 1/48 Airfix EE Camberra today as well....well worth the 17 quid since it's a H-U-G-E aircraft in that scale and the decalsheet is enormous!

Airframes · May 30, 2009

Done it again, haven't I? Went to replace a couple of tins of the 'new' Humbrol paint, which have gone hard after only about 3 weeks! Heard this little voice, all hidden away on the bottom of the pile on the bottom shelf of the LHS, crying to me.
So, walked out with this, ready for the Bombers/Heavy Hitters GB.
Had to be done, it was 3 to 4 quid cheaper than anywhere else, including Model Hobbies!
BTW, for the non-Brits, a 'quid' is one Pound, about $1.80 U.S.
