Wow! If you don't mind me asking but why the rust color in the wheel wells? (Curious) Overall, I think the Corsair looks awesome. Love the weathering on the cockpit seats and the cockpit as a whole. Can't wait to see the finished product.

Never mind. Now I know why you chose the color rust color. Came across an article about zinc chromate.

Tomane, this is simply 
I wonder what is your opinion of Eduard´s resin cockpit? Is it this much better than what is given in the box?

Someday, when I grow up....awesome work.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Re: F4u-1 Corsair Birdcage 1/32 Tamiya
and using the old P-39 base more adequate for the Corsair, because it`s huge for the 39
made some upgrades on it and this was the final result
I´ll post the final pics on the SPA gallery
