Me too Kevin.

Here's a tip for you guys that will make the wing fit much easier. If you plan to have the wings extended this works well. If you are going to have them folded you will need to go on and attach them as shown.

Pretty well cleaned up but still needing a little sanding on the panel lines. I've decided to do this RAF Mustang with Polish markings instead of Bald Eagle.

Thanks. Now some gloss coat then decals then a flat coat. Decals later.

Here ya go. All the "base" camo done. Some weathering is next. Those a/c were all very weathered so I'll need to be careful and not over do it (or under do it!).

Working on applying the Intermediate Blue and Sea Blue today.

Corsairs are one of my favorites for sure.

The white undersides, etc are done. The Intermediate Blue is next then the Sea Blue.

LOL Dennis. I just like to keep something, or some things, going. Helps me to stay at least partly sane! 🤪

The primed Spitfire looks very good! I look forward to seeing it in camo.

Thank you Peter. It's nice to learn something new! Can come in handy.

Thanks Harv. Coming right along.

LOL is right Kurok.

Thank you Carl. I'm pretty sure the tail hook was removed as most land based Corsairs had that done. I will leave off the tail hook on this build.

Some more progress. I'll close up the engine later on.

Thanks Kevin. My mind needs LOTS of clearing! 🙃

I know what you mean except keeping busy building helps me to keep my mind off "things". 🙄

Todays progress.

Thanks Peter. I did that correction on all my Corsair builds but just never mentioned it.

Rear cockpit bulkhead and seat installed. You might notice the info printed under the head rest is black, not red as supplied on the Tamiya decal sheet. I just re-printed them in black using my laser printer. I've never seen any red one's in color photos, just black. Not saying there never were any red ones, I just never have seen anything but black.

Thanks Carl. Agreed, they should add a little something to it.

Good progress on the cockpit this morning. Coming right along.

Thank you Harv. I appreciate it.

Time for another Corsair build. This colorized photo decided me on this build. Ought to look pretty neat!
