                        Hi guys, I hope I am in the right topic section for this one :) Got back to modelling a few months ago after 20y break.

                        This is my Tamiya 1/72 F4U-1, number 13 flown by Ken Walsh from VMF 124. I accidentaly damaged the pitot tube and the antenna tail attachment point during the photo shoot :( I know I overdid the chipping on the right side of the fuselage, but didn't want to make it worse by attempting to correct it, so there it is. :)

                        It is my second model using airbrush and I am looking for some honest feedback from you bigger fish out there, hoping to learn, so don't go easy on me. :)

                        Thanks in advance,

                        Nikola

                        Nikola,

                        For some reason the link you provided takes me to the Pictame home page, not your pictures.  Perhaps you could provide a better link for us.

                        Hi Lewbud, 

                        I realized that I made mistake with the photos, but soon after learned how to post photos within the message body, so I reposted properly. :)

                         

                        Best, 

                        Nikola

                        Lovely work. Like you I've just come back into the hobby and my p40 didnt seem anywhere near this! Well done. 

                        The F4U-1 is a favourite of mine. Interestingly did you know Goodyear was building these for the war effort?
