More quality work, no surprise that you would make this into an excellent model. I own the 1/72 version of this kit. I wonder if the issues will be similar. Thanks for sharing so I can solve some of them whenever I attempt it assuming it's a smaller scale version of the same kit.

Before you even started the build, this is excellent for no other reason than it isn't the 1:24 Spitfire, the 1.32 Kotare Spit, the 1/48 Arma hurricane, the 1:48 Sea King or the 1:48 Gannet... I mean, I love all those kits, no doubt, and really rate some of the builds but well done for finding some interest elsewhere! I think there's at least one prolific 'content creator' who is on part 26, part 31, part 79... and that's just the 'unboxing' yawnfests; the kits will be out of production before he's finished them. 😂 Bravo! 👏🏻

I think he’s built most of those kits though. Pretty sure he’s at least done the 1/24 Spitfire and the 1/48 Gannet and Sea King. I think the good point is that they weren’t unboxing videos.

@machmodels

6 ай бұрын

Thank you! As mentioned I have build a lot of those kits when they came out in a matter of weeks so it just allows me to move onto some more projects which I personally wanted to build! Unboxing videos always make me cringe a little but maybe that’s my personal opinion! Merry Christmas!🤙🏻

Awesome build! I believe the front piece at around 7:04 is the engine nacelle? Very cool bit of the engine. I’m sure there are some aerospace engineers here that could explain the importance of that piece to engine performance!! Thanks for the video!

@thehistaricgamer3489

6 ай бұрын

As far as I know, the piece is simply just the front intake edges, I’m not sure of an exact name, but to clarify, an engine nacelle is basically an engine(s) tat are mounted on a pylon looking thing or just mounted away from the fuselage. A good example is the engines on a B-52 or any modern generic airbus or Boeing jet.

A great build. The Corsair II is a great looking aircraft along with the Prowler. The holographic HUD was a really nice little attention to detail. I like the support stand you have it looks like a worth while piece of kit. I'm not familiar with HobbyBoss, but there seems to be a lot of seam and fit issues.
