Painted and a few decals applied. Now I'm waiting for the post man to deliver my mail today as the Hussar decal sheet is slated to deliver today. If it DOES show up today then I can start on the rest of the markings. I expect to have it finished by tomorrow PM IF the decals arrive today. 🙂

You are welcome!

I've decided to start thinning the stash starting with some of my armor kits. There are 6 kits in this first batch. All are complete and untouched.

That's a great looking '109 Kevin! Well done with some nice weathering, etc. I like it! 🙂

Thanks. Getting started on the wings now.🙂

More progress

Thank you Peter.🙂

Coming right along.....

It's coming along well Peter. You can't beat Tamiya for excellent fit and detail. That's one reason I like their 1/32 birds so much. The P-51 and Corsair are available from other manufacturers but still, I think, Tamiya is the best. It would be great if Hasegawa (since Tamiya isn't issuing any more 1/32's) would issue some P-51B/C's and F4U-4's in 1/32 to go along with their P-40's. Then we'd need for them to re-issue the P-40N, K and M kits. Now THAT would be outstanding but I doubt it'll ever happen. We can hope though! 🙂

Current status. My research tells me that, starting in 1945 or so, the interiors of the Corsairs were beginning to be a mix of the older Dull Dk. Green and yellow/green zinc chromate with black side consoles. Since this one is a Okinawa bird I feel that will suit the model just fine. 🙂

Thank you! 🙂

Your '109 is coming along very well Chris. Looks great!!🙂

I'd be afraid I'd cut myself with my exacto!!! LOL I still follow the instructions and if I didn't I'd be sure to foul up somewhere.

Making some good progress on the "front office". 🙄

Thanks Chris. I hope you find something there that is usable. 🙂

By the case would be nice for sure! LOL I'm leaning toward the checkered nose and tail one. Ought to look good!🙂

Heck yeah Hubert! LOL 🙂

It's been a good while since I did a Corsair model so now is the time to remedy that. I plan to do one or the other of these two subjects. I've been busy on some of the preliminary stuff (instrument panel, etc) and will post a photo soon.

Thanks Martin.🙂

I was wondering!

Thanks Peter. groprgewous??? That's a new one on me LOL.

I'm glad you like it Dennis. thanks! 🙂

Finished. https://forum.largescalemodeller.com/topic/20353-hasegawa-132-bf-109f-for-the-gb-rfi/

I'm calling this one done. I think it will fit in okay for the GB. 🙂 Painted with MM RLM79 and White Ensign RLM78. Decals are from my decal stash. After market items are the FineMold belts and the Quick Boost spinner/props. Otherwise OOB. I hope you like it!

Interesting subject Peter.
