Splendid work! The weathering is fantastic.

Got to be one of the best builds I've seen on here. Brilliant stuff, weathering is excellent, figures are excellent and the dio although simple is perfect. :clap:
Regards, Dave.

Superb work. One of the best 1/48 Corsairs I've ever seen. The fading and chipping of the paintwork is beautifully done.

Got one in the stash, this is the benchmark I've got to aim for now!!
Its been tried and tested, it works! So don't blame the system if you're no good. :doh:
