Next up, after years of collecting references.....
After years of collecting references and figuring I could build the Revell 1/32 corsair into something decent, Tamiya comes out with another super kit. When it was first out it was too rich for my blood, but as these things go, patience [...]

1/48 Hasegawa F4U-4 Corsair
My intent was to take the Christmas break and crank out a OOB build just for fun. Funny how plans don't always work out. Always liked this bird and was able to see quite a few in the air at an airshow near Indianapolis several years ago. [...]
