Mike- excellent job all around! [Y] For sure, many Testors kits give one the opportunity to exercise their building skills, as well as their patience.
Dave
Yes, yes they do Dave lol!!
I was just looking at the A7M2 Reppu that scottabe just finished and it looks like he had pretty much the same battle. You’re just glad when its over lol.
Looking good Mike. The crew remind me of the Master Chief in Halo.
Really? I don’t think they look nearly that cool. lol
Thank You. 
Great job on your Corsair Mike! I’ve two of that same kit in my stash.One is going to be built as a machine of the Royal New Zealand Air Force. Also looking forward to seeing the Longbow once it’s finished. That old Testors / Hawk Corsair kit has been around since the late 50’s or early 60’s. The last aircraft kits made by Hawk Models was their line of simple.World War Two fighters (Zero,Wildcat,Spitfire & Bf 109) in 1967.
That explains why “Hawk” is molded into the inside of the fuselage. I already knew Testors didn’t make their own molds, but that confirms what I had suspected about the former manufacturer of this kit. I assume for that era the kit was phenomenal. Sunken panel lines and all.
But this was a nostalgic build for me. I just remember it being much easier to build back then lol.
I did have thoughts of painting this up as an Australian aircraft, but I’ve always wanted to do this Marines (Boyington) paint scheme. Now that I have I think I’ll make an Aussie bird next since that’s my second favorite scheme on this plane. 
Thank you for the compliment, Roger. I wish you luck when you build yours and I hope it all lines up better than mine did.
At least painting it was fun.
