A big gripe about the decals : there are no tail markings (model and serial numbers, etc.), and what is there is either ...

bughunterWonderful progress!
Have you lost the kit wheels or are they wrong? Sorry, I can't help.

Boris B AuthorThe kit wheels are completely wrong, which is strange because they are quite visible on the few pictures we have of the XF5U.
The other inaccuracies in the kit are more minor, or linked to the what-if nature of the kit (guns,…). As for the design of the wheel wells, for instance, who knows how they came up with those, but I doubt they had access to original Vought documents (besides what is on the web), or the kit would feel more authentic overall.
I don't mean to sound too critical, since the engineering is good and the kit rather enjoyable to build.

Accurate Miniatures Vought SB2U Vindicator build

I thinned the antenna and glued it. And I corrected the propeller back to a SB2U-1/2 type, with its strange variable pit...

bughunterNice you continue on this one! You spend already so much effort with nice results after every step it would be a shame not to finish it!
I don't know it your 3 years old question of the eagle decal for the engine is still valid (pic 30), but here you can found one. See the instructions of the decal to see if is that what you want. Not cheap too 🙁

Boris B AuthorHi Frank, Thanks for the kind words and encouragement. Life had taken me away from modelling for a while, now I can finish some old projects !
And thank you for the pointers for the P&W logos. I wish these stencils were for the SBU, as they are impressive (and priced accordingly!).

Boris B AuthorThanks for looking in... I needed a quick buld on the side of my endless projects, something out of the box and satisfying. This was just it. In a couple of days (after a previous painting session), I built and painted this one. I could do more details on the characters and a bit more weathering on the ship, but I'll consider it finished for the moment.
