This is a great kit and I am looking forward to mine. Tell me Brian, I have not yet had a close look at the parts on mine, but would it be easy to modify the wing tips to get a clipped wing for a FAA version?

Barry the wing tips are separate. It would be very easy to modify them for a clipped wing FAA :smiling3:

Finally got some interior paint going. Yes there is also a 1/48 F4U-1D being worked on to. Figured since i had to paint the 1/32 might as well paint the 1/48 to . Next is the awesome fun of painting all the awesome detailed parts :smiling3:

The interior green is my own made up with tamiya paints .
