Chance Vought F4U Corsair

1/32nd FG-1A Corsair

I suspect most any modeler who has been at it for a while decides to take on a challenge to do something a bit off the beaten track. I've always been attracted to the F4U Corsair and have lost track of how many of them I've built over the [...]

1/48 Monogram Pro-Modeler Vought F4U-5N Corsair (Hasegawa Mold)

I just cannot build enough F4U's, especially the later version models such as this "-5N". This particular model was sitting in my stash for over 10 years. I had passed it over many times because it was just a [...]

1/32 Tamiya F4U-1A Corsair VMF-214

I highly recommend this model due it's incredible level of detail out of the box, as well as, the high standard of engineering resulting in perfect fits. Yes, at over $150.00 USD, it is considered pricey, but after building this wonderful [...]

Another Tamiya 1:32 Corsair

Just so you all know I’m not sandbagging a shelf full of models to post on the site. I really just discovered iModeler in the last week so I’m playing catch up and really enjoy hearing all your feedback. My bride gave me an airbrush [...]

Tamiya 1:48 F4U-1D, white 155, VF-84, USS Bunker Hill, February 1945

Corsair built the Tamiya kit in 1:48 scale.

1/48 Minicraft F4U-4B VMF-323 Korea

This F4U-4B has all the same modifications as my other F4U-4B here on Imodeler, except that the wings are not folded, and I have used a flap set from the Verlinden F4U-4 detail set for the Hasegawa kit. The weapons are 1000 lb bombs from [...]

1/48 Minicraft F4U-4B VMF-214 Korea

I built one of my Minicraft 1/48 F4U-4B kits with Tamiya 1/48 F4U wing fold hinge parts. I made resin copies of Tamiya 1/48 F4U-1 oil cooler inlets, then cut out 3 of the vanes to modify them to match F4U-4 inlets. They have a much better [...]

straight wing fictional F4U

I occasionally modify kits for the fun of it. Here's an example. Wheels are up, Buffalo and Wildcat style. I'm beginning to put together an IModeler Group that I hope will steer AeroKnow Museum friends in the direction of iModeler [...]

Tamiya F4U-1D 1:32 Scale

Tamiya F4U-1D done. Three months elapsed time, about 120 hours work, and I missed SMW by a week, oh well there's always next year! What a superb kit! This one is being featured in a three part special in MAI (part 1 out now). All the [...]

Academy F4U-1A Corsair "Skipper Riley" 1:72

My dear son, 3 years old, is big fan of the movie "Planes", so I have seen it a couple of hundreds of times. When I proposed my kid to build a "Skipper Riley" F4U he jumped of joy, so it had to be done. As always, I [...]
