Andrew Doppel Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 These will be Chris' entries into this GB. He started the Academy one a while ago and put it on hold, the second was given to him half built and falling apart. The first one is an Academy 1/48 F4U-1 'Birdcage' Corsair of VF-17 'Jolly Rogers' aboard the USS Bunker Hill. He has left over decals from an old Tamiya kit for it The second is a Tamiya 1/48 F4U-1D Corsair of VF-17 'Jolly Rogers' which he intends to do as Tom Blackburn's 'Big Hog' with one wing up and using Eagle Decals After three hours of solid work on the Academy Corsair yesterday, this is how it now looks; Regards Andrew and Chris Quote Link to post Share on other sites

phantom Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 (edited) Make sure he (or you) add aphoto or 3 to the finished builds section so he is eligible for a prize. As of right now there is one finished model. AND up to 18 prizes to give away. Edited February 4, 2012 by phantom Quote Link to post Share on other sites
