    Finally bit the bullet and purchased the F4 Phantom, after watching it for 9 months since it was announced. Did my own version of a "Key West" Sundowner Camo version with help from Callie for a custom decal for the tail. Added matching wing tip paint for orientation and visibility (cause that's my biggest problem when flying-other than landing of course) and included the 3D exhaust nozzels and the cockpit. Love this plane! Every product Motion comes out with from Freewing/Flightline is just outstanding.

    Hi everyone. Thought I would show off my new 1700mm Corsair. It has not yet been maidened. Spent the last three months putting it together and mostly painting. My thoughts on the paint scheme are that this bird was stationed on one of the South Pacific Islands and made it through the war but the salt water and constant rain left it pretty worn. And the insignias are mostly just what came with the plane so Its kind of a mix. Not trying to win any "scale" awards here.
    That's some impressive work there. However, the more I look, the more something appears out of place.

    Then it hit me ...


    Where's the duct tape??? LOL Nice Job:Cool:

    Pleasant days everyone. I've been away for a few (TDY), but, now I'm back on the grid and playing catch up for all I've missed these past few weeks. Good to be back.

    Thank you for the compliments. The next bird that I do I will post videos of the weathering techniques. You can find a lot of good stuff on YouTube. Just search for weathering techniques on model airplanes.

    total badass-ery there.
    Nice Job

    And FYI, when you don’t try to win awards - that’s when you win awards!:Cool:

    Fabulous work Aces!! Welcome to the Squawk and keep up the good work! She looks like something that was found in a bone yard and right at the beginning of the Hallowe'en season, just too cool !!

    Woodcock,

    Thanks for the compliment and yes there is a lot of speculation out there. Alpha has thrown out some hints but keeping the playing cards close to the vest.

    Guess he has a really nice field. I wouldn't chance a plane that costs that much at my field, which could be called Klach D'kel Brakt

    Model is a Top RC F9F Cougar. Running a 12 cell system. 120mm JP Hobbies 12 blade fan with a Castle Creations ESC.

    I would really love a 90mm from MRC. I would have a couple in the hangar in a heart beat.

    Well that's bigger than mine:). I've got the RC Lander 70 mm F9F Cougar and Hawker Hunter, both in the build que for after my Tomcat. And the Tomcat's behind 50 mm SkyAngel F9F-2, BAE Hawk and BH Delta Wing.
