Its gotta be in a bare metal finish...c'mon now! lol I may darken the aluminum paint a little to give it that "bad guy" look, since he will be chasing an F86....

The North Korean mig's had a few camo schemes.

Hey again, y‘all! Happy belated Memorial Day!
Good work on that Corsair, crown!
Justin, are you gonna use Alclad, the foil method, or something else for that NMF?

Ive been using Vallejo Metal Air colors for brush painting accents for a while now, I think I am going to spray this bad boy with them...
Curious how it works out Justin. I have not had luck yet with model air but have been gathering tips for my next try. Good luck!
That looks good Justin! I too am interested in how they come out. I've only used Testor's Metalizer (hated it) and Alclad for metallic finishes.

Justin. The vallejo metal paints work well.
The F4U-N with landing gear and some weathering started.

Crown, that Corsair is lookin’ great!
Yeah wow Nick, looks like she's pretty much done!
Nice work!
I'm hoping to get back to it this weekend, so I will try to remember to take extensive photos when I get to it!
Crown, that corsair is amazing!
John,Gamera and Justin. Many thanks for your comments. The weather has been typical t-storms in afternoon. I need to plan to paint a light coat of clear flat to cut the shine in the A.M. but would like to add a Hasegawa F-86 in 1/48
The Corsair is neatly painted and decaled, Nick. I look forward to seeing it finished.
John

Absolutely, crown! I’ll add the Sabre to the roster!
That's cool Nick, are you building her as 'The Huff' or do you have other decals?
John. thank you for your kind words.
John 3:16. Great! I dont know what sqd. yet?
Gamera. I dont think its going to be Huff and man do I have decals for the 86.

OOoohhh...Cool! I've got the Airfix 1/72 Sabre on deck after finishing the MiG!
Cant wait to see yours started!
Nick: Cool, looking forward to seeing what you do with her!
Justin: The 1/72nd F-86 sounds cool too!
Yeah me too.. I have an old monogram 86 on the shelf and now I remember why, too many broken parts so back to moth balls it goes.
I gave a light coat of Vallejo clear flat to knock off some the gloss, some small stuff to do.
Good job with your Corsair, crown!
So, I‘ve stalled long enough:
Installment 2:
If you haven’t seen Installment 1 or the explanation of my planned project, you can check out page 6 of this thread. The posts are near the end of the page I think.
Meanwhile, I now have the tank for my project. It came straight from Russia— literally...
...and it even came with an extra mini-tank!
As for the figures:
Well, I changed the color of the first one’s boots, added some buttons, and a tin foil gun strap:
Other figures I’ve started:
John3:16. Thank you. Those figures are fanstatic nice job on details. I'm looking forward to the tank!!
The F4U-5N is waiting on ordinance now.. my latest pics.
Thank you very much crown!
I see you put the canopy and prop on; nice job masking that canopy!
Love the weathering on your corsair! looks great.
On the Bench: 1/72 Ki-67, 1/48 T-38
1/144 AC-130, 1/72 AV-8A Harrier
John 3: 16: Those look good! Nice work on the figures and looking forward to seeing what you do with the T-34.
Nick: Again nice work. So close now!
Thank you, Gamera!
Crown, that Corsair looks Topps!
John, I'm interested to see what you do with those "dirty commies"! Lol
I've finished with my MiG 15....
Justin: That looks good!
So are you still working on the in-flight base?
Gamera,John3 ;16,Falcon and Justin. thank you for your kind words.
Justin. thats a nice shiny Chinese mig 15 !!
This is the belly of the corsair with fuel tanks no rockets .. its pretty much done waiting for weather to clear for some out door pics.
Gamera Justin: That looks good! So are you still working on the in-flight base?
it is still in the planning phase, but I sure am!
I started on the F-86 ,cockpit,exhaust and airbrake wells. I do plan to use Vajello metal colors. I tried them on a test mig 21 looks pretty good.
