I came up with this monster!
It confused several American tourists at the local hobby shop!
I feel like an American tourist... So close to a P-47, until I noticed details, and details again, and...yes, a nice monster! :thumbsup:

The Thundercat looks so right  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

       Hey, what's the scoop on this Corsair? Obviously a racer or planned racer. I've never seen this one. FWIW, my fav alternate paint for a Corsair is the WWII RN camo sceme. However, bare metal USAAF Corsairs (& Bearcats) are cool.

I followed it up with the P-52 Corsair, in a Blue Nosed Mustang scheme. I discovered that an aluminum schemed Corsair is just plain ugly, and didn't take any individual pictures of it by itself.

Don't do that!  Just give it a spinner.  I think one of the prettiest Corsair survivors is actually aluminum.









Cheers,

Logan

Alvis those are both incredibly brilliants, and exceedingly well done  :thumbsup: Hope you don't mind me "borrowing" the idea for them in the future?

Feel free to steal any ideas I post, since most of mine come from other people in the beginning anyhow.

Great crossover between those two birds. I was figuring out what you could use use from which plane to mix a F6F with a P-47, but you beat me to it..

Thunder thunder thunder thundercats!
