    Beautiful kit! Magic Factory have taken the Corsair to a new level. Definitely the best on the market now!

    Your attention to detail is unmatched & one of a few online modelers I watch online. I have learned so much from your CZcams videos so keep up the great work & thank you!

    Looking good, I can't wait to see the rest in part 2. I've got this kit in my stash and was thinking of starting it soon, so this is a timely video. I'll be watching again when I start it. If it's not too late, one thing I'll point out that most people get wrong on Corsair builds is the camouflage. It wasn't a 3 color scheme it was 4 colors. Insignia white, intermediate blue, non specular sea blue, and glossy sea blue. The 2 sea blues were not simply a gloss, and flat (matte) version. The glossy sea blue is actually a different color that has different hues than the flat version. As far as I'm aware, only one model paint brand makes all these colors accurately, and that's Colourcoats, a small British company. They're kinda hard to get, (especially in North America) and they're also enamel. I'm going to be using them on the Magic Factory build, as well as on the Tamiya 1/32 F4U-1a I've got in the stash.

  • @mikelesmodelingcorner8479

    Hi Metodi,
    Great build, as usual. I especially liked the idea with rather old fashioned drybrushing for cockpit detailing - results are great. Looking forward for further episodes, as this Magic Factory company seems to be very strong new player in the business. Cheers!

    Built it late last year when it came out - it's excellent - can't wait to get the 2nd one done... seems we agree, complex but great (I actually used the 1/32 Tamiya instructions as the break down is very similar! not a bad thing)

    I got to see the Birdcage Corsair that they have been working on at Pensacola and I can say that the interior colors are spot on for what they did. Your build looks very nice and almost has me persuaded to get one. I saw the built up test shots at the IPMS Nationals last year in San Marcos and was impressed with what I saw, even though I am more partial to the F6F Hellcat!
