It's funny alright. Someone used the same video when Testor's bailed on some of their paint a couple of years ago.
-
Looks like I'll do this one (unless I change my mind again! LOL). I'll leave off the the paint on the nose as I'm sure this a/c had solid sea blue there at one time.
-
Yes, I have some of that and it's good stuff.
-
Undecided right now but likely up (to save display space!).
-
Thanks!
-
Thanks Carl. I'm glad to see that you are a member here too.
-
Yes, they are enjoyable builds as are the P-51's and Spitfires. I just wish they would do a couple of F6F Hellcats.
-
Thanks Dave! That sounds like a good plan.
-
Just about done with the cockpit.
-
No it's CA gel. Scale Hobbyist has it. I think using it will be more convenient than the IC Gel I have used. It won't replace the Testor's tube glue though.

Tamiya F4U-1D build #2 revisited
JohnB replied to JohnB's topic in LSM 1/32 and Larger Aircraft Ready for Inspection
Thanks Bill. Not yet on the current -1D. Just about to get the cockpit finished. Pics soon. -
I've decided to give this one a try. I've used IC Gel for a while but it looks like this might be just the ticket.
-
Thanks Jeff. I take a look at it.
-
Thanks Bill.

Tamiya F4U-1D build #2 revisited
JohnB replied to JohnB's topic in LSM 1/32 and Larger Aircraft Ready for Inspection
Thanks Jeff. I'm glad you like it. -
Thick CA is one thing I do use. I was hoping someone made a non-stringy polystyrene glue but I guess we'll have to be happy with Testor's stuff.
-
I've used Testor's tube glue for many years. The only gripe I have with it is it's so stringy. I've looked around on several suppliers sites for a alternative but haven't found anything that looks like a good replacement. Any suggestions?

Tamiya F4U-1D build #2 revisited

Thanks Martin. -
Since Peter and Ernie are posting some of their favorite builds I thought I'd join in. This is my Tamiya F4U-1D build #2 (of 9 Tamiya Corsairs from -1 to -1D). Off the USS Bennington 1945.
