| mattolson | Guillows Series 1000 - F4U Corsair | Parked | 19-Feb-15 18:54 |  | | Views : 1681 | | Finally!!! Started this in 2006 (a couple in between, but this was a tough one). Built with all features(control surfaces, folding wings, retract LG) xcept dropping bomb. Color is Model Master dark Sea Blue. Hope to start the P47 next and get back in the groove! |

Neither gun pictured here is complete. The top gun is the inferior design. The bottom a rendition closer to that of a Lewis Gun. The two Gumby guns go into the ”Magic Box”! |

The winter has thinned their ranks, probably with the help of the coyotes, fox, cougar and bears. Then there are the fly-ins.: eagles, turkey buzzards, ravens magpies. Interesting to watch. |

The Rapidogrph knock-off pens that I mentioned earlier not only don't work well on glossy surfaces, but don't dry either. After manhandling the plane to finish the panel lines, I found smudges, runs and fingerprints all over. I spent the better part of the afternoon with Q-tips and various cleaning fluids trying to repair the damage. I finally ended up using a Sharpie "Ultra fine poiint" laundry pen to finish the job. I had always planned on using some pastels to simulate the many rivet lines visable on the real plane, so maybe I can camoflauge some of the damage. Drat!!! |
