Hi guys!

Been a while since I've done wingy thingies, but figured I'd share some WIP pics of my Tamiya 1/48 F4U-1 Corsair...






I'm trying to go for the really worn look ,since the Birdcage version was early production and saw a lot of use; Ithink it's coming along pretty well

Any comments and suggestions would be appreciated

Edit:Woops, hit the wrong key earlier, corrected the scale...

Well... it looks to me that you're well on your way to greatness.
I like the weathering you're doing, and the cockpit looks very nice indeed!

Thanks for sharing!
