Finished Revell 1/32 F4U-1A

Post by cnq » Sat Sep 10, 2016 9:58 am

Just finished this one yesterday. It was built out of box. This is my 2nd US Navy Plane in 1/32 for the Pacific theater. I've been thinking about getting the Trumpeter TBM Avenger next.

Thanks friends.

The Trumpeter Avenger is the best kit out there only problem is it would cost me ~150 CAN after shipping to Canada :x . That's 5 times more than what I paid for the Revell Corsair .

Beautiful work on the Corsair. I have eyeballed that Avenger kit myself, but have shied away due to the cost as well.

Excellent work. I too have my sights on an Avenger. Too bad 21st didn't do one in 1/32 before they went belly up, for us model kit building skill lacking types...lol

Thanks guys.

I still have not got the Avenger yet, still waiting for Canadian dollar to go up a bit against the US as ebay is the only place I could get it now.
