X-Man! This breathes the ether of brilliance! You clasp the crag with your sharpened talons, having flown harder and faster through the air than ever before! Proud of you, Ken.

Ugh, I'm late for the party! The lady already folded her wings to cover her best parts. But what a beauty she is.
Maybe I can get a private moment with her in the dressing room later...
Fantastic work, Kenny. Now for the
BIG sister.

Good looking build. What color did you use for the main gear wheels? Looks sharp.

Carlos,
Thank you! I feel like I’ve reached a milestone with this one. And I’m glad that of all the Corsair attempts, this was my first one to leave my workbench finished.
Mostrich,
Thank you so much!
Keavdog,
Thank you! And that color was Tamiya AS-12 for the rims, washed with raw umber. The tires were German grey, oversprayed with thinned-our NATO black. Then I dusted them with Tamiya’s “sand” pigment.
Midnight,
I HATED those at first. Even moreso because Tamiya made this decals in two pieces. But boy do they look nice on there! I’m glad I used them.

Just the right amount of weathering to make 'er look good and used without making it look decades old like I've seen with some builds. Very good outcome Kenny.
