    Geoffers Revell 1/72 F4U Corsair R.N.(Karl’s Pacific Carrier / Aircraft G.B.)

    Thank you to Karl for organising the Group Build, I’ve really enjoyed taking part in it :smiling4:

    I decided to build this as a tribute to the Royal Navy’s participation in the Pacific Theatre.
    It represents an aircraft from FAA 1834 squadron embarked on HMS Victorious.

    Overall the kit was a pleasure to build, one of Revells more recent offerings it went together very nicely and for less than a tenner!

    Build thread here: https://www.scale-models.co.uk/threads/geoffers’-revell-1-72-f4u-1b-corsair-royal-navy.41564/

    Here are the pictures.

      Thanks Doug :thumb2:

      That one was a bit fraught, I’d knocked the aerials off countless times so had to be very careful not to do it again :confounded::smiling6:
