David HThis kit was bought as " believed complete" from eBay. What it actually is complete but with reservations. Incorrect stabs, they're from and fg1 boxing ( wished I'd known BEFORE doing the FAA rebuild ) . So they're first to be fixed before going any further.
This entails sanding off all the raised detail and creating the slotted leading edge. Let's see how that goes .

David HBeautifully printed sheet of a hard to find subject. Unfortunately Microscale have made some glaringly large (pun intended) errors.
First up are the stars and bars. These are way too large. More 1/32 than 1/48. In fact they are larger than those on the Hasegawa 1/32 skyhawk. In addition, on my sheet the blue looks a little to light in shade
Secondly , the “MARINES” text is too large and the wrong font.
On the plus side, the carrier is minimal and the printing is perfectly in register.
My Opinion:
Only worth buying if “MUST” have this airframe or if you have plenty of spares to replace the glaring errors. But if you do , it will result in a model in rarely seen livery

David HGreat printing but the "MARINES" font is totally wrong and the stars and bars are the same size as my 1/32 skyhawk 🤣 so also unusable. I got these dirt cheap (now I know why) . So basically don't waste your money unless you have plentiful spare decals (fortunately I do ).

Andreas LuxThis effect of paint is definitely annoying, but that doesn't detract from the great result of your work!

David HSo this has stalled a little bit , due to 1.my errors (wrecked the port stabilator and had to scratch a new one , 2 lost bits and pieces (lost 1 of the the flaps, now thankfully turned up) 3.other projects.;4. A change of plan.
