RFI 1/48 HBoss F4U Corsair USMC VF213 James Cupp Aug 43

[PanzerWomble]

Bought as a mule to try multilayer chipping using ATOM paints and odourless thinners ( yes -it is a thing put down the hairspray ) Mr colour silver, then zinc chromate then the blue . Sandblasted corsair fits the mould . 

More like this I think . 

Not bad details or fit for a $20 kit. Had to make some seatbelts...no dramas...& so thats three of these for one  of Magic Factorie's new Corsair (I'm sure it's lovely really) 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pretty battered ....

 

 

 

 

The man himself .  3 DFCs and a Navy Cross.!!..shot down 13 aircraft, retired as a Colonel and lived a long life , passing away aged 84 .
