Thanks for the humbling comments mates.
The degradation of paintwork on modern USN planes realy fascinates me.
I've tried to capture it on this A-7, learning some new tricks on the way.

Thanks for the kind words mates. 🙂
Used Gunze paints for the colors and some AK products and Mig pigments for the weathering.
Not my last (grey) USN bird, that's for sure! 😉

Wow, how did you do those grease effects? What is this technique called?

Beautiful job, the side of the fuselage with the pilot boot scuffing on it looks great as does the wing roots

Thanks mates!
Muphlon, I used oils and AK (panel line) washes for the grease effects. The scuffing on the side and on top of the wings is done with MiG pigments. I think it is 'europe dust' for the sand colour and black.

Technician of the board was a big slut, in unpeeled shoes wandered over the wings and the cockpit.???? Original is not an example clearer.

Nice model and nice photos.
Heh, I remember seeing lots of these Corsair models so many many years ago in the big Tamiya printed catalog I used to read though repeatedly.
