- For a kit that's over 20 years old, Tamiya still holds their own. This was a very fun kit to build and to paint up. I was really surprised by how easy Army Painter paints were to airbrush. I used Vallejo Airbrush Thinner at about a 60-40 ratio of paint to thinner. That being said I'm really excited that The Army Painter is releasing an all-new Airbrushing Medium, which has is thinner and flow improver, and that just sounds excellent and will make airbrushing a whole lot easier and more fun.
Just be careful as Mineral Spirits will strip off this paint almost instantly. This is why I was using Enamel thinner in the video, for the panel line wash. #corsair #armypainter #tamiya
A big thanks to Robert at the Model Makers Union, who sent me this kit, you can check out his Facebook page here: / 297836094235989

The F4U-2 Corsair was designed as a night fighter. Several early F4U-1 Birdcage models were taken off active duty and brought to the states for refitting. These new -2 models featured a bulbous radar pod on the wing and the removal of one 50 Cal to compensate for the weight.
These night fighters were designed mainly at the request of the troops on the ground that were bothered during the nights by the Japanese forces flying around the islands, not exactly doing the best for the troops moral. On the plus side these -2 Corsairs were actually quite successful in their role. Another notable feature were the longer night time exhaust stacks on the underside of the aircraft.
This Corsair "Black George" was the 4th option with the Tamiya kit and has a few minor errors, I should note that I didn't find this picture of "Black George" until the build was nearly completed and I found it by accident. 1: The wheels are incorrect for this version and should have a tread pattern. 2: On a close inspection of the photograph, it appears that this Corsair has the blister on the main cage that housed a rear view mirror and not the straight back birdcage design as was built. 3: The radar equipment for the interior is not present with the kit, but I can't fault Tamiya for this as I don't believe any F4U-2's still exist.
I was wondering if that growth on the one wing was a malignant tumor in need of a biopsy.
AWESOME JOB. I Hope I can build one and at least come close to how beautiful you built and painted yours.
Good build. I like that you didn't over do it with the chipping and weathering. Very subtle detail. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks David, I do like some of the more weathered Corsair's, but it just didn't feel right for this build. Still I wanted it to have a nice used effect.
It is quite mesmerising watching you work. Nice music too.
Thanks Rich, I'm glad that the music is good. It took me 2 days to find some appropriate music.
Absolutely love this particular aircraft, my fav of all time, more so than the P51 and spitfire, the Baa Baa black sheep squadron show was special to me mainly because it showcased this aircraft, good job putting it together..
Never seen a Corsair painted like this before. Very nice!!!!
Same here, but I only found one picture of it after I basically had it completed. It looks darker in the pictures, but I'm pleased with it.
I know I'm late but this kit looks like it goes together really nicely, I might have to give it ago myself
Thanks Ethan, it's and older model but it's still a lot of fun and it fits together really well. One day I'd like to try the 32nd scale kit.
Sweet🤗. You nailed that faded sun baked shade o intermediate blue!
Great looking Birdcage! Enjoyed seeing it come together!
Thank you very much :D I've grown rather fond of the Birdcage, it's got a menacing appearance.
That light blue is to die for. Nice job. Never a huge fan of the corsair, but something about the birdcage always got me.
Thanks TWA :D I was really thrilled with the colors after I had removed the maskings. Yeah it looks more aggressive, kind of like the birdcage is like a helmet or something.

Absolutely great work and uplifting to watch during the current crisis
Thanks Wayne, I'm glad that the video is helping. I'm certainly getting a lot done on my current project. Maybe I'll have another up sooner than I originally planned, provided those new wheels arrive in the mail soon.
Great build and an excellent video presentation of same. I always enjoy watching your builds. Thank you..from the U.K.
Excellent Job And a AWESOME kit and Aircraft..👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤗
Hi, it's nice work. Especially, painting is very impressive and understandable. I'm going to watch your another video. Thank you !!
Thank you very much :) I'm glad that you enjoyed the build.
Nicely done, it looks just right. I have that kit myself, I'm glad you've shown us how it's done! Excellent!!!
Thanks Brian, did you get my e-mail a while back? I think it might have gotten lost in the junk mail?
The last email I received was 1/20/20
Check your email I sent you a message
You are holding that metal object with a funnel on it... and paint appear on the plastic!? It must be magic... 13:24 ..aha, that's more like it!! Glad to see you have skills!! ;) And the end result?? Stunning.... :)
Very nice job indeed! Your modeling skills create most impressive models......lots of great ideas demonstrated and excellent visuals. Congrats.
Very excellent work pal.
Greetings from Novi Sad.
I thought that said "Greetings from Nova Scotia" Gee, my brain is off lately.
@@rebelsatcloudnine The city is Novi Sad, which is in Serbia. You can find it on internet if you are interested.
She looks GREAT!!!!!! Very Nice Build!!!!!
Thanks Michael :D
Excellent model building and video making. Always a pleasure to see your work!
Thanks Russell, always great to see you around. Have you worked more on your Lancaster?
@@rebelsatcloudnine Yes, I have been working on the Lancaster. Fuselage is glued and filled. Waiting for a canopy mask set. Too much greenhouse for me. Can't wait to start painting.
@@russellgosselin3325 I agree completely, I did that to both of my Lancasters almost at the same time and it nearly killed me. I've got 2 more Lancasters to build and I'm just going to buy mask sets for both of them... and the 3rd one I'm also going to buy. I think I've got a Lancaster addiction.
What a beautiful Corsair, congratulations!
I love the painting of this, beautiful model !
Thank you kindy Michael :D
You nailed that finish! She looks amazing 😉
Thanks for providing a song list also. Gives me some good ideas
Well, I sort of have to or face the wrath of UA-cam.... again.... and again.... and again...
@@rebelsatcloudnine lol I can relate. Although I'm not yet hooked up to adsense and only recently got the point where I would even be eligible. I have never had a video taken down for copyright- usually the owners just stick ads on for themselves.
@@TheWaggishAmerican I'm going to be resposting one of my videos as this is the 3rd time I've been hit with a copyright claim.
I REALLY LIKE that COLOR very nice.
That's a beauty!
Very nice. And rare, the F4U-2 night fighter if I'm not mistaken. Well done! 👍
Lovely build mate, Not seen that colour before but I like it. Well done!
Thank you, I agree, this Corsair was just odd enough in all the right ways for me to build :D
Fabulous work, and I specially drooled at all the details on the cockpit (and shame on me that I have still failed to master the technique of making seatbelts and harnesses with that degree of accuracy) and engine.
I have never been fond of the airbrush- it seems to me that it takes forever and that I age bad to have the surface primed or painted on when using airbrush, while the hand brush seems much quicker. Nonetheless I have to admit that there are duties for which the airbrush is the best if not only option, like panelling.
10/10 work, as always.
I know what you mean. Sometimes it's difficult to even get an airbrush to cooperate properly. That being said I do have a lot of fun using it.... at least when it's working properly.
That is stunning! I see you're using Army Painter paints. You're the third modeler that I've seen use them. I bought a set but haven't had a chance to use them yet.
They make an excellent primer for something that's an acrylic, it's pretty hardy and you can sand it down. Plus their Flat Base is the best I've ever come across, far superior to the Tamiya Flat Clear. I was really impressed with how nice these are to airbrush, and that I had a lot of control with the paint. At first they were clogging up the tip of the airbrush, but some Tamiya Acrylic Retarder sorted that out quickly and I was back in action.
Hello from France, Awesome job ! Thanks you for sharing. I am new in this hobby but the Corsair is my best plane from far ! Maybe it is due to the "black sheep squadron" episodes ! All the Best.
Thank you kindly. I bought season 1 of the show a few years back and I agree I think seeing those real Corsair's flying are certainly and inspiration for building.
Absolutely beautiful build Jared!
That looks awesome!
great looking build
Un très beau résultat et une peinture de l·époque ,Félicitations ,,,A+
Thank you very much Robert :D
Another beauty . I don't go in for weathering myself but yours is so subtle ( like the subtle panel lines too . ) This kit is probably from the original 90s kits . What we were just saying ; probably still better than Airfix . I built the F4uD years ago the fit was excellent . The only thing I don't like ( which Airfix do do . ) is an easy option for flaps and undercarriage up .
Thank you again Anthony :D I'm really glad that people like the weathering I did on this, as I'm not a big fan of weathering, because I think I do too much. So I tried to create a more used version of the Corsair. I think this kit came out in 1996, and yes it still holds up. I don't usually like models with the folded wings in sections because they don't fit well when extended, but this was the first time I didn't have that as an issue. I think possibly because Tamiya doesn't really sell a separate stand for their models like Airfix, that they more or less assume that most modelers will want the gear down. That being said their larger 32nd scale kits are designed to be in flight or landed.
@@rebelsatcloudnine I just hang them on hooks with clear plastic wire ; underneath shelves to add storage space . I think I am more of a collector of aircraft ; than a modeller . So I like the clean lines of the aircraft . Models will never be truly realistic ; so it's a matter of taste ; how they look . Clearly some look better than others of course .
Beautiful work.
Very nice build as usual
Glad you like it :)
Looks great. Thx for posting
Thanks for watching Andreas :D
fantastic
Absolutely wonderful.
I appreciate that Dave :)
It's cushdy! I love it.
Very nice build...fun to watch! One question: as you are applying the pinwash to the panel lines, what did you use to remove the excess - a swab or small paper towel piece? I find that it's almost as easy to remove the wash settling into the crevices as it is to remove the excess wash on the panels! Just wonder how you walk that tightrope.
I used a cotton swab dipped in some enamel thinner. One thing I do is leave the wash to dry for about 24 hours, this lets it harden and dry properly so that when I remove the excess the paint in the panel will stay.
Stunning.
Bellissimo modello
nice kit! subbed!
Very nice build of my favorite WWII plane!! Inspiring video!!
I'm glad that you like it Drew, the Cosrair is a great looking aircraft. A bit tricky to assemble as a result of the design, but I think next time I'll have to try the 32nd Tamiya kit.
Excellent build! I know this video is two years old. But I am curious as to where you picked up those army painter paints? Thanks 👍
Thank you very much :) I bought these at a comic book store not to far away from me. Army Painter are easily available online and since I made this video, they have come out with their own brand of airbrushing thinner. I haven't tested it out, but when I spoke to the company they said it has a special formula that has a sort of retarder mixed in.
@@rebelsatcloudnine Thanks for the info and the reply!
Kenny
Love it👍 I’ve saved loads on not buying canopy masks as you’ve taught me how to do it😀
Btw where did you buy those tiny stainless steel bowls you mix your washes in?
Top work 🍺
I'm glad to hear that, I find it very satisfying to mask my own windows, but when I dod the Lancaster I nearly died haha.
I can't remember, but I think they are called Mr. Paint Trays? They are made by Mr. Hobby and easy to get online like ebay.
rebelsatcloudnine Thanks dude👍 stay safe🍺
Very nice. Did you make those seatbelts from scratch? The cockpit part was skipped over. (Not complaining though, mind you.)
Yes, its tape and styrene buckles. Sadly the footage didn't turn out that well, so I binned it.

Отличная работа мастера!!!
Very nice build! What is that glue you use to assemble the fuselage halves? Is it thin cement or something else?
Super build 1 question you are using primer on the exterior but not inside the cockpit any perticular reason
Only because I wasn't going to be handling the interior parts the same as the exterior. The exterior is opened to more abuse, and I wasn't totally sure how the Army Painter paint was going to react. But I'm pleased to report that it was strong.
I would really like to know what the blue colour is thanks
Just curious - why did you choose the Army Painter brand? That's one I've haven't tried to lay down through an airbrush. Worth trying? Great build of a classic kit.
I've been using their Primer and Anti-Shine Matt Varnish for a few years and I've been thinking for a while if I could airbrush with their paints, and things just fell into place and I tried it out here. They are very nice and easy to airbrush. I was very impressed with how thin I could get the paint, and it kept a good consistency. The coverage was great it never thinned out, like I've experienced with some Vallejo, and it dried quite hard. Honestly, I'd say give them a chance, there's a bit of learning curve to finding the right thinner to paint ratio, but I run into that every time I try out a new paint, but after that you're sailing :D
Exactly what model is this?
