That small "addition" has saved me from many a big mess!!!!! 🙂 -

Might be a good idea to post this also Peter. I recommended adding "collars" on paint jars, etc. They have saved me from knocking over thinner, paint, liquid glue, etc many times. A simple and useful thing. 🙂 -

It's coming along nicely now Peter. Looks good! 🙂 -

Should be a beauty Kevin! 🙂

I had given up on finding it! Now I'm pleased that the model is officially "finished". 🙂

That might be a good idea Peter!!! Was blotto on Lotto this weekend.

While on my hands and knees under my desk looking for ANOTHER part I happened to drop from the 2nd '110 build I saw a little reflection over and partly under a trash basket. It turned out to be the missing canopy piece from the 1st '110 model that I had looked high and low for and had about given up on finding.🙂

I built that Revell 1/32 kit many years ago. If I remember correctly it was a pretty good kit. 🙂

Thank you Paul. I appreciate the nice comments. I see you are a new member so WELCOME! 🙂 We have a great bunch of guys here. -
I have one of the Hasegawa 15'000th "N" kits that I've been tempted to build lately but I hate to do it since any of the "N" issues are hard to find and, when you do find one, the seller wants a arm and a leg for it. So for the time being it'll stay in my stash unbuilt. I wonder how the "E" kits are still available since it's one of the group of their 1/32 P-40 kits. If the "E" is still out there then why not the "N", "K", and "M"??????? If a manufacturer issued a series of new 1/32 P-40's (except Trumpeter which really dropped the ball on their P-40's. I got one of their "F" kits and was very disappointed in it), I think they would sell well. I know I'd buy some!

After looking over the available color schemes for this kit I think I'll change my mind from the one I had originally planned to do to this one. CHANGE OF PLAN.....I did some test fitting on the extremely delicate antennas and, after MUCH fiddling and cussing, I broke some of the little aerial ends off while trying to get them straight.🙃 I had my doubts about those aerials in the first place. Now it's back to the original plan for the one marked C9 * IK.

I just received this Profipack kit and was surprised its different from the one I just finished. A different kit number from the other. 8206 on the first kit and 8208 on this one. It also has different decals and radar aerials plus parts for another 110 a/c. I didn't notice the different kit number when I ordered it from Scale Hobbyist but I'm pleased with the kit and am ready to get with the program! 🙂

That's good news Carl! Enamels have always been my "preferred" paint.🙂

I've decided to start another '110 NF model from Eduard. A little bit different from the 1st one but still quite similar.

F2G Corsair re-paint, etc. all done

Thank you Peter. I'm pleased that you like the results of my efforts! It needed "saving" from gathering more dust and now it will go in one of my cases. -

Thanks Chris! 😀 -
All done. https://forum.largescalemodeller.com/topic/20291-f2g-corsair-re-paint-etc-all-done/

I brought this one off my old dusty shelf and wanted to re-do it. I cleaned it up, re-painted with White Ensign GSB and added decals from my stash. I think the new look looks great! I hope y'all like it too. 🙂
-
Nearly finished. Just have to re-attach the gear doors, flaps, radio mast and prop. All painting and decaling done (and in a little different scheme). 🙂
