Catch22
Major
This is kind of an odd thread that could go in a couple different places, but since it will chronicle the remainder of the build of my F-18, I put it here. Feel free to move it of course if you disagree Mods!
So here's what I've collected so far of VMFA-323 related items:
Hasegawa 1/48 F-8E Crusader
1/48 Crusader decals for F-8E BuNo 150298 of then VMF(AW)-323 during Operation Green Wave June, 1963 from Fox One
Hasegawa 1/48 F-4B/N Phantom II
1/48 F-4 Decals, Eagle Strike Phantoms Phorever Part 7 for an F-4N of VMF-323. I can't find a review or better photos of this, and it's in the mail so I don't have it yet.
1/48 F4U-4 decals, Aeromaster Mid-Life Corsairs Part 1, for BuNo 96845 between July 1950 and February 1951.
1/48 Hobby Boss F/A-18C of VMFA-323, CAG.
So I've got almost everything together! I just wish we could put of build threads for the Cold War build as the F-8, F-4 and F4U will all be part of it!
Here's the catch though, I don't actually have an F4U-4. I've seen the Academy one kicking around, but is that the best kit out there?
