Tamiya F4U-1A Corsair, 1/48. Ira Kepford's Jolly Roger.
I've always loved the Corsair, particularly the mid-war four-tone scheme, and last year I built my first one which was Tom Blackburn's 'Big Hog'. A year later I wanted to do a new Corsair because I felt my skills had improved and I wanted [...]
