Corsair F4U 1:32 Trumpeter

My vision is to do it the closest thing to the photo and make it all inside in scratch

Here are some pictures of the inside as I want it to be ( in scratch )

My project includes the mount and the motor in scratch

Thanks!!

Adrian - big fan of your work.   Looking forward to this one.  Did you finish the sub?

The first think to do is the landing gear in scratch, then I need to cut the fuselage from part of the wings and the front of the main body

Thanks

Looking forward to follow this project.

I am a very big Corsair fan.  I’ll definately be following along!

Your Friend, Toshi

Thanks you Gary Mason, 

yes, all the pictures I get it from internet, in this moment I have about 1300 pictures from the Corsair.

Thanks.

Important note: This project, due to its nature, will go slowly and you have to be patient.

My goal is to complete it by the end of this year. Thanks !!

Here are some of the drawings that I use

I will not publish all the steps and give some examples to get an idea of the process

It is designed to have mobility although in the end it is fixed in position out

Any questions, please, I am at your service.

Thank you!!

After seeing what you did with the U-boat, this one will be a museum piece as well.  Will be watching for updates on both

It's so much fun to watch your Works In Progress! You are a craftsman and a skilled modeler and seeing how you work is inspirational.

I guess I'm not the only one who thinks F4U Corsairs are the cat's pajamas .. but I do. So I'm looking forward to your posts in this thread.

Thanks and both projects will require some patience and time, and I plan to make significant progress for this year

And I'll be working sometimes on one and sometimes on another. Thank you!

WOW!

The frontal landing gear

Some steps of the process

Thanks!!

I'm having a hard time believing what I'm seeing here! This is just incredible work!!

Your turning a model to life.

Your Friend, Toshi

Adrian, that’s masterclass stuff right there!

New levels of modeling on display here. More please . 

Wow.  Just wow.

All that is missing is the smell of Skydrol, and the lue oil for the oleos.

Almost a shame that all that exquisite metal work needs covering up with white paint.

Fantastic work.  What do use to bind the metal fabricated parts together?
