Here's what I did last night instead of studying...(Pics included)

I finally got around to doing some more paint work on my F-4U1-D Corsair. For those of you who don’t remember (including me lol) this is Tamiya’s 1/48th kit that I bought two years ago at one of hobby lobby’s half off sales. I started it last winter. I got all sorts of stuff done, including the base coat of sea blue. It looked too dark, so I sat it in it’s box on the bench, and it’s been staring at me ever since. So, when I saw Pix’s beautiful Corsair for the Soccer War customer, I was inspired. I ran out and bought some white MM paint so I could make my MM Sea Blue lighter. Then I waited a few months. Well now I finally got around to actually painting. I didn’t do it as scientific as Pix, but I like the look of it. Enjoy, and feel free to critique!!

And here’s what i made tonight instead of studying[:P]

It’s good to be me!

Uhh…never seen a Corsair shaped like that before…and the paint is all brown and wrinkled.
Terrible finish…

But did the Corsair taste good?

Oh yes. Delicious. Too bad we’re out of milk now.

LOL…I was gonna ask the question…did you thin the paint with milk or coffee?
Now I know.

I thought you only fired pottery! Does it work on models, too? [:D] I’ll have to try it!!!

Oh, and by the way- [#wstupid]

(I’ve ALWAYS wanted to use that emoticon!!)

Looks good [tup]. The Corsair ain’t bad either… [:)].

Those wouldn’t be “magic” brownies, would they? [:-^]

A very nice faded, worn look. You did a good job! Oh, by the way…nice paint on the plane too!

Hey man, when in Rome…

Andy

Your Corsair looks great, but I think the last pic shows your best work of the night. And I’m just guessing but I bet that pan of brownies doesn’t stare at you for very long.

Oooooooooooooo I C, The Magic Brownies made you paint it that dark LOL

Looking Good

Bud

Andy… Har har lol

If “magic” equals double chocolate, then yes, these brownies are very special. What can I say, I live rich!

The brownies have lasted suprisingly long. They are about half gone now. WHich says a lot because mom and dad and little sister all love brownies…

On an unrealated note… 2000!! [party]

Man- that looks GREAT. Excellent job.

Nice work on the Corsair, too…

[;)]

Seriously- that’s gonna turn out to be a nice bird.

[dinner]Mmmmm…Nice! The Corsair looks good too![:D]

I have not seen that camo pattern before. But it looks good…[dinner]
