Well done mstanley! Beautiful looking Hellcat, how did you like the kit?

Great looking Hellcat! How did you acheive such a soft demarcation line? It’s suberb!

Nice build![tup] Tall sucker wasn’t it?

Green w/ envy!

Thanks for sharing!

Well done !!! [tup]

I think that you just forgot one thing: to flat the tires… this add a bit more of realism on your job…

Very nice build…

How do you did the carrier deck ?

Best regards,

Lucas

Geat job! It looks fantastic [tup] I like the dio too. Well done buddy [:)]

Awesome build mstanley, very nicely done. I have this kit and am thinking of doing next after I finish the P-40N.

I want to ask, too, what you used for your carrier deck under this build? It looks pretty big.

Thanks for posting.

Nice kit. As are all the latest Eduard kits

My Iwata HP-BS with a .020 tip. I use MM enamels thined with lacquer thinner.

Nicely done. I’ve heard mostly good things about this kit but haven’t tackled one yet. Thanks for sharing.

Regards, Rick

Very nice Job, Mstanley. Really captures the look of this gangly bird.

"I think that you just forgot one thing: to flat the tires… this add a bit more of realism on your job… "

Correct me if I am wrong, but didn’t carrier aircraft run fairly high tire pressure, so the flattening would be minimal, compared to a land based aircraft? Just a thought.

Nice looking build, especially the cockpit. Great work there.

Such an under-rated fighter IMO. Always liked the Hellcat and you did a superb job on yours.
