FAA Corsair II. Tamiya 1/32 scale

Thanks for your comments everyone.

This really is a superb kit and I cannot fault it. Any problems I had were all of my own making.

Beautiful build Barry. The Corsair looks good in the FAA scheme.

A post-script to this build. This morning I picked the model up by its wing, unfortunately the ‘wrong one’ where the spar had broken during the build giving me all the problems, anyway it broke off again and fell to the floor sheering off a wheel leg, a prop blade etc causing too much damage to get a good repair so it’s now in the bin. At least I had the pleasure of the build and it held together long enough to get the pics.

Thats a crying shame barry but as you say at least it happened after the build was completed and photographed , and youre going to have some top quality bits in the spares box ! Cheers tony
