                        Looking good Joe. Golf & gardening have taken their toll on my modeling time for the last couple of days. Hope to finish up the pit by Saturday.

                        Where the real ones were built. I flew over the Goodyear Airdock the other day. Birthplace of around 3000 ( if I remember right) Corsairs and the F2-G Super Corsair!

                        well i have brought the corsair back. she was off to the side as i brought the p-40 even to it as far as construction.

                        now i got my horrible painting to show. i really stink at paining.

                        Looks real good. Just one question: why are some of the kill markings backwards?
                        is it the way it was printed or was there some pappy meaning behind it?

                        Work has been killing me. No modelling what so ever in the last 2 weeks.....bum deal, but great for the wallet.
                        3d modelling is an option a true mental excercise in frusrtation

                        unfortunately yes the decal has the kill markings printed every which way. i didnt catch that before i attached and added decal solvent.


                        i am counting mine as finished though. thanks to all for participating in this.

                        The decals are right. In the original photo of Boyington and LucyBelle, the kill markings were put on fast with no regard for which way they were facing.
