71roadrunner426 Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 (edited) Calling this Jake done, this puppy was a great build with Mike west updates such as the cockpit, cowling and windshield. The canopy lifted during these shots but now is fixed. I hope you like it. Rob. Edited August 13, 2012 by 71roadrunner426 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mawz Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Stunning Build Indeed, that's one gorgeous Corsair. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
oortiz10 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 OK everyone, this one's done. Well, the airframe's done. I had a minor setback with the pilot. That aside, here are some pix of the finished build. Enjoy! This was a challenge to build, but I had fun nonetheless. It provided me with some good practice. Hopefully some of the experience I gained through this build will serve me on future projects. Thanks for following along! I hope it was worth your time.
