Hello again ARC!  This is my Revellogram F4U-4 Corsair, depicted as a VMF-214 Black Sheep bird during the Korean War.  Except for a set of True Details wheels, this kit was built as it came in the box.

I primered it with silver Testors spray paint, then painted it using a Model Master Dark Sea Blue spray can.  I used pastel chalks to weather it after decals went on, and scratched the paint off with my fingernail to represent paint chips around panel lines and leading edges.

Its not a contest winner, but it looks cool enough sitting on my desk at work.
