Received my Eduard Hellcat today and thought of doing a build blog as I go along.
I’m unsure what plane to do as it’s either Paper Doll or Minis III.
I already made a start on the Legend figure climbing into his cockpit.
Having not built a model plane for such a long time I maybe a bit rusty.
Going to make a start on the cockpit tonight.
Nice build, hopefully I can do mine half as good as yours ![]()
I’ve got Ammo Atom Ocean Blue and interior Green to paint it and faded Navy Blue oils for blending.
All my plane kits are the Eduard Profipacks.
Spitfire Mk I 48
Spitfire Mk Vb 72
Bf 109 E1 48
Bf 109 G6 48
And my order for my Eduard Zero has magically disappeared in the post ![]()
My current stash includes only one kit marked as an official Profipack, coincidentally a 48th scale F6F-5 Hellcat. Although I have three Royal Class Dual Combo kits, all 48th (P-40E, P-51B, and A6M2) that include all of the stuff one typically finds in a Profipack release.
I have a P-51D on my to buy list but it’ll have to wait until my holiday,need to save the pennies.
I done Petie 2nd back in the early 2000s using the Tamiya kit but I fancy doing Big Beautiful Doll next time.
