Rob Some mighty nice progress and I'm right with you in leaving off the solder made oil lines for as long as possible. Considering you still need to handle the engine and the odds are because they are so delicate, it's a disaster waiting to happen - the extra caution is the way to go.

John Incredible progress on the Corsair; looking mighty good.

Carl So glad Fur responded well to her treatment and you're so right, just enjoy her for the time the family has with her.

Scott Nice first order from Scalehobbyist. I've been buying from then for years and they have awesome prices and excellent service.

Paul Your collection of Dspiae tools continues to cover their complete range. Super quality and they seem to cover almost every tool needed for nearly every modeling job. Enjoy. The Nuts and Bolts do look mighty good as well. Dspiae

Martin Amazing detail work and the results are brilliantly done. I've never seen a 'hydration bag' added as a detail or even one to be honest - so unique and what an attention grabber! Beautifully work.

Chris Just catching up and you've made some incredible progress. I'm right with Martin and Carl on your NMF work - beautifully done. The various tones and clear blue shading work so well together and has that Phantom look all over it. Over the years I must have looked and studied hundreds of photographs of Phantom exhausts and almost no two are exactly the same and some are miles apart. It's the overall 'hot metal' look you're after and have captured so very well. Seamless intakes require hours upon hours of work and the end results are so well worth all the effort. You easily knocked yours out of the park and the fit you achieved is amazing - thumbs up for sure: 👍.

John "The King of the Corsairs" Will be following very intently, as I have the kit as well and am very interested on seeing how it's wing fold compares to the Tamiya Corsair, I built a few months back

Rob Some mighty fine progress and just needing a few touchups is a major victory in learning the ropes for these types of kits.

John Perfect decision - when a build starts to become frustrating and the enjoyment factor is gone, time to move on, especially at our tender ages.

John Good call when things just don't go right and the kit is nothing but one frustration after another. The hobby is supposed to be enjoyable and relaxing and not just the opposite. Tomorrow hopefully your P-40 will arrive.

Rob WOW, underway and I'm still amazed at the organization of working through the first assemblies. Clearly, one of the most important technical skills for these types of kits, is the ability to understand the required assembly procedure, organize the parts and then work slowly toward a completed part. Looking mighty good.

John Making some nice progress, as well as moving along at your normal pace.

John Just sems to come with all the Revell 1/32nd scale kits at no extra charge.

Scott Looking mighty good with the second coat of thinned out filler on. Yup, fully understand your concerns of shrinkage as it seems to go on for quite some time. if Bondo removes the shrinkage concerns, absolutely the way to go.

Awesome work as always and no question, your Sea Fury reflects years of wear and many hours in the air.

Mark I'm right with Martin - looking mighty good.

Scott That's one nasty blemish and a repair that is going to take some time. As a second idea, how about filling in the hole with plastic rod and epoxy? When dry sand to shape.

John Looking good and the colors seem spot on.

Rob Nothing like crisp, precision organization for ensuring the build will flow as per plan, without needing huge, time-consuming breaks trying to find a small part in a sea of small parts. .

Mark Pretty cool!

Rob And the first of many adventures begin. I've already learned quite a bit on how the tumbler works and the proper parts preparation for an MHF kit. Going to be quite an adventure, my seat is front and center row, from start to finish. Enjoy the journey as we will be living it through your eyes and build updates.

John Great subject for your next build and some mighty unique markings as well. Looking forward to following your progress.

Some mighty terrific work and right with martin and Dennis.

John Awesome build - simply flawless. I do like the mages with the two Jugs together - both beautifully done.🏆
