Do you ever have a model that just never goes your way and that you end up hating? Well, this is one of them. The decals liked to fall apart, the paint went badly, and just in general I didn't enjoy it that much. Certainly not a winner hehe. And to top it off, right after I took the pictures, a chunk of one of the 13s fell off, but I saved it.

It looks great! Very well done Catch.
I haven't been fallowing this Group Build as closely as previous, but appears that you are the first one to finish your entry.

Yeah he is, that was quick Catch. Still despite the problems with the build it still looks good.

Bl**dy h*ll Cory! That Corsair look fantastic, love the camouflage! That it's a "13" doesn't hurt either! Well done mate, well done indeed!

Thanks Dan. I LIKE it, but it could have been and should have been better.

Lovely work Catch. To be honest I like this one a lot more then the other, it has the camo and I just like the overall look better. But both are really nice!!
