Dale1416 | Dumas Kit #213, F4U Corsair | Build | 24-Sep-10 18:13 |  | Views : 2155 | Painting completed; ready for the peel and stick decals. Since Dumas kits are lacking in scale details, I added engine outline, 4 blade prop, rockets, cockpit instruments, etc. |

Dale1416 | Dumas Kit #213, F4U Corsair | Build | 24-Sep-10 18:10 |  | Views : 2332 | Just about ready to be papered. I plan on painting this one blue with a light blue bottom.Here it is with the propeller and rubber motor installed. I haven't glued anything yet. |
Dale1416 | Dumas Kit #213, F4U Corsair | Build | 24-Sep-10 18:08 |  | Views : 2282 | The Dumas kits are very lightweight flying models. So I added a few extra stringers and ribs. I took two of the 6" stock kit propellers, cut them down, crossed lapped to a hub made from the end of a ball point pen cap. I just need to paint it black and I'll have a scale looking prop for the Dumas F4U Corsair. |
