Here you can see F4U, F2G and my design.

According to wikipedia F2G was only 4 cm longer than F4U :o

Anyway in my definitive version, the plane will be 72 cm longer than standard F4U (measured in the base of propeller), so 1 cm more in my 1/72 model. 8)

I have moved radiator a little forward,

What if Zombi Fighters?



Why Allison 1710? It is what I have in my spares box, from an old Revell P-38 :icon_surprised:

This is just the beginning, they can loose more pieces of skin ... :icon_ninja:

'Stalin's Zero' is some absolutely inspired work!

I really like your P-40/P-51 combos too, favoring the P-40 fuselage with P-51 wings & tail but both are a feast for the eyes.

I’ve always wondered what a Corsair or Fury would look like with a big honk’n turboprop engine. Kind of like the Piper Enforcer conversion of the Mustang. Just throwing this figment of my imagination out there.

Overcrossing Dora-Veltro


IMO top one is beautiful, and bottom one is extreme.

I'm quite partial to the Dora-Vetlro myself. Seems to embody sleekness!

Great stuff, Señor Ysi!

I like the compound helicopter gunship ... the Guy-in-Back will have a real 'hot seat' though  ;D

I keep thinking eliminate the "hot seat" and rear rotor, add stub wings with rocket launchers or missiles and it'd look very Luft-intimidating.

Whether it could actually fly like that I leave to the experts.

P.S. I like that radial engine Sturmovik. I've had plans to do something similar with a single-seat version in styrene for a while now.
