Hobby Boss 1/48 A7E Corsair II "Sidewinders" - Ready for inspection

Hi gents,

Another one on the shelves. I could say that this was more of a routine build which did not inspire me that much, but I still had fun for sure.
As these birds were kept relatively clean and well maintained, I decided to keep weathering subtle.
I have used Aires cockpit set and I am not actually sure if it was for this kit even though it says it is. It was quite problematic fit wise in some areas.
No pitot tube was provided in the kit.
I have scratch built the intake cover as the fit was bad on the already wrong shaped intake, so it required covering up.
Painted with Gunze Mr. Color paints and weathered with AMMO washes, Revell pigments and AK pencils.

Hope you like it.

Best,
Nikola
