Amazing looking build. That Sharks mouth is good, bu tto me it looks like it is laughing at something funny rather than looking all firece and scary.

No, but I now have the image of an all blue F-32 with lips around the intake and the name "Monica" on the side.

The sharkmouth looks real good on the F-32 although with the shape I'd say it looks more like a PELICAN  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

Great job on old Smiley there!  That intake has always screamed for shark teeth, I think this kit has tons of potential and you have done it justice :)

Very nice Sharkmouth Rotor!  Although I agree with Lancer, I tend to prefer the more aggressive looking ones.  I've found you can change a smiley one into a snarly one simply by turning it upside down like this:






Eyes can make a big difference too, the position, shape, degree of slanting etc.

Would it be smoking a cigar?  Or should it be stuck up the tailpipe???

Sorry.....
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

What about "Super Corsair" or "Corsair III" after its A-7 styled configuration? :huh: B)

French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

I think the A-7F was to be the Cosair III,so maybe Corsair IV? Although I still think the F-32 looks like the offspring between an A-4 and an A-7,which as proved,isn't very attractive.

Sweet buld!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Makes me wanna get back into my kit and finish it.  I'm going for a Desert camo USAF bird.  It definitely kicks some serious tail compared to the F-35.  Being a Boeing build a name is a puzzler... Boeing have been out of the fighter game for yonks.  Mayhaps one of the other companies they have gobbled up has something more appropriate available.  I couldn't see it getting a Corsair moniker tho...

Looks good, maybe you can write "happy Pelican" on the side it. I'm not sure if its the angle of the sharks mouth or teh huge intake but it looks very happy.

I like it! Well done on building a good looking model.

Shame I can't get a 1/48 scale model...I think it might also look good in "retro" USN/USMC colours...

Or there's the other clients, like the FAA etc...
Try not. Do. Or do not. There is no try.
