Hi all well its been 3 years since I first snipped off the first pieces of this Corsair from the sprue but now she's all done.

Yes the weathering may be over the top but I like it like that :)

ON TO THE PICS!!













In hind sight I don't know how effective my attempt at showing marking wear on the tail was. It just looks like the decal ripped (well it did but thats besides the point)...
Try not. Do. Or do not. There is no try.

Yep,youve done a good job with that. :thumbsup:  :thumbsup:

A personal opinion only: the underside could be weathered similar to the top, bbut thats only my opinion and takes nothing away from a very interesting build. :salute:  
Im pink therefore Im Spam...and not allowed out without an adult

Outstanding work! B)  I love it! :wub:  I didn't think there was a way to improve on the already kick arse Corsair, but you've done it. Bravo Zulu! :salute:

Wow what a stunner, D2! That SEA camo is a natural! Kinda makes me wonder why they didn't pull a few of these birds out of retirement to work in close along the Ho Chi Minh Trail.

That thing is the shiznit!  Looks like a real genuine development of the Corsair.
