  1. Mighty purty Scott! When you get done please come to my house. My yard is a sight since my lawn mower quit on me. 😄
  2. On hold for the moment while I tend to other binnis. LOL 😄
  3. Thanks Peter. My fingers, and toes, are crossed also. Attaching the wings promises to be a real PITA I'm afraid. At any rate, onward and upward as they say. 🙄
  4. Thanks Kevin. Love that Dark Sea Blue (or GSB) . That color and the Corsair were made for each other.
  5. Back on this build now that I have some nice decals for it. I plan to do all the decaling THEN undertake to see about attaching the wings (folded). 🙄
  6. LOL Thank you Hubert! Got to stay busy building and the SBD is a nice kit, both the -3 and the -5.
  7. I'd say the only "required" after market is the seat which is a beauty. All that other stuff, in my humble opinion, is far from "required" and just adds more headaches to the build. I'll say this though, they DO dress it up well. 😄
  8. I just have lots of time to devote to building Peter. Keeps me off the streets and "sane" LOL!
  9. LOL Kevin! Both were very fortunate to come through the Ploesti Raid although they did have a little damage. Those Hasegawa B-24's are really nice kits but pricey. I just ordered a "J" from SB and it was $70.00 plus shipping. Sure had to bite the bullet to do it.
  10. Very true Peter. Sure can be aggravating! ðŸĪŠ
  11. Thank you Peter but, in all honesty, they all do have their faults. It just don't show in the photos! LOL
  12. Making more progress despite my foul ups!
  13. I've been working on this one off and on for the last year. Finally finished it this last week. It goes well with the 1st one I built a couple of years ago. Both were Ploesti survivors. Decals are from Fine Art of Decals Ploesti Specials.
  14. Agreed Peter. Their instruction diagrams could use some tweaking as they leave a lot of room for guessing. I've had to pop it apart twice to re-attach parts correctly. ðŸĪŠ
  15. Coming right along. Had a couple glitches getting the fuselage & innards to match up but corrected now.
  16. 20/20 hindsight Ernie. Kane, Compton and Ent screwed things up.
  17. Alright! I have one in my stash and I'll certainly be keeping up with your build. Maybe that will give me the needed incentive to build it. What scheme do you plan on doing, grey/green or earth/green?
  18. As expected Peter it's outstanding! Very well done!!!!
