Looking good, I can't wait to see the rest in part 2. I've got this kit in my stash and was thinking of starting it soon, so this is a timely video. I'll be watching again when I start it. If it's not too late, one thing I'll point out that most people get wrong on Corsair builds is the camouflage. It wasn't a 3 color scheme it was 4 colors. Insignia white, intermediate blue, non specular sea blue, and glossy sea blue. The 2 sea blues were not simply a gloss, and flat (matte) version. The glossy sea blue is actually a different color that has different hues than the flat version. As far as I'm aware, only one model paint brand makes all these colors accurately, and that's Colourcoats, a small British company. They're kinda hard to get, (especially in North America) and they're also enamel. I'm going to be using them on the Magic Factory build, as well as on the Tamiya 1/32 F4U-1a I've got in the stash.

Your build looks very nice and almost has me persuaded to get one.
