    Awesome detail on a 1/72 scale. For new modellers its helpful to hear the commentary about the types of products you use and how to best use them. Great looking model.

    Fantastic rendering. I bought the same plane 2 days ago for the price and couldn't imagine it could be so beautiful. Then i found your channel looking for what to do with the Zvezda SU 33 i bought too cause it's my favorite. Thanks for the lesson. A french beginner in 1:72. Of course je suis abonné ;)

    Great job...realistic & a true working Corsair navy fighter! I built the Tamiya 1/32 scale F4U Corsair. Not a cheap model by any means & quite complicated with it's million parts that allows for different configurations! Unlike you, I gave my Corsair a pristine paint job just off the assembly line. She hasn't been battle hardened as yet...lol!

    Just wondering what Color you painted the air intakes on the Corsair’s wings?

    I believe it was the same colour as the top basecoat of the wings.
