  1. I thought so too but the more I looked at the photos of the real a/c the more I decided the light blue was just wrong. I removed the national insignia from the upper wing and the fuselage and replaced them with some from the kit. MUCH more accurate than the goofy Fundecals I had used. I still need to overspray them with some clear flat but you can get the idea, etc. Scanned Section 4-1.TIF
  2. Decaling completed. Now for a overspray with clear flat then on to some weathering. The more I look at the model the more the decals for the national insignias don't look "right". I hate to do it but I'm going to take 'em off and replace them with some that, in my opinion, are better. Fingers crossed.
  3. Wait until you get to placing the cockpit tub and the lower wing/resin wheel wells.
  4. Good luck with this build Ernie. At one point in my build I threw it on the floor and stomped on it (good thing it was on thick carpet!).
  5. Main painting done. Weathering, etc coming up after adding the walkways.
  6. You have my sincere sympathy Ernie. People can really be a-holes.
  7. The Fly Hurricane Mk II is right up there with poor fitting kits. VERY high cuss-factor.
  8. I don't know if that would be satisfactory. The Trumpeter SBD-5 prop works (that's what I used on my NZAF P-40N build). The -3 kit comes with the early prop and the later one if I remember correctly.
  9. I wonder why they discontinued it. You'd think it would sell well especially with the P-40F conversion still available.
  10. Yes, I know but it still isn't listed as available. Bummer.
  11. Still looking. Does anyone have Grey Matter Figures email address? It isn't on their web site.
  12. LOL Gaz. Now if they would only do a -4 Corsair.......
  13. Thanks Carl. It's the Testor's YZC in the 1/4 oz. bottle.
