We'll be Spitfire rich I guess!! LOL

Thanks Dennis. I've saved the link and will refer to it when I get ready to start. Thanks again!!!

Whenever the Quinta and Barracuda sets get here I'll get going on the build. At this point I plan to use kit decals but that may change later on. Since I'll be using the very nice Quinta cockpit set I'll have the hood and door open.

LOL Hubert. I have a Revell P-51 that I set aside mid-build a few weeks ago so I guess that will be what I'll work on in the meantime. Ought to work out well.

Thanks!!!

LOL 🤪

It should make a nice model but now I'm waiting for the Quinta set and the Barracuda set. Seems like I'm always waiting for stuff! LOL

After reading some build reviews I decided I best go on and get the set. Now I'll be waiting for that AND the Quinta set to build the model. Guess I'll have to find something to work on in between. 🙄

I decided to get the Barracudacast correction set for this model.

LOL MARU! Been there too (or should I say banned there too LOL). Hopefully you will be active here as we have a good group of folks.

I've had this one in the stash for a while so I guess now is a good time to build it. I plan to use the Quinta set (ordered today) for the cockpit but the rest will be OOB including the markings (at least at this point LOL). Looks to be a straight forward build although I have read a few build reviews detailing some "problems". However, I don't think it will be a high cuss-factor build so onward, etc!

Thank you Mark, I appreciate it.

Thanks Chris. Quinta does a good job for sure.

Thank you Phil. I'm pleased that you like it.

My mistake, sorry. 🤪

LOL Gaz! Thanks!!!!!

Thanks Kevin. I used a combination of lightened blue gray and some pastel chalk. Worked out okay I think.

Thank you Rob. LOL I'm glad you like the model.

Thanks Gaz!!! I tried not to over do the weathering since it's so easy to ruin a model like that. I'm pleased that you like it!

Thank you Fran! Very much appreciated.

LOL Hubert. Thanks! I'm glad you like it.

🙄

Thanks Peter!

For salmon primer you can use some Luftwaffe RLM23 red with a bit of white added to match one of these FS colors (whichever you prefer). As for the underside color, it's Colourcoats WW2 USN Light Gray (I don't have the FS number but it's close to Light Gull Gray 36440). You are welcome, thanks.

Done with this one. https://forum.largescalemodeller.com/topic/18864-f4u-1-finished/
