1/32 Trumpeter F8F-2 USS Boxer

Here's my interpretation of Trumpeter's F8F-2 Bearcat VF-151, using the Eduard photoetch set and some substitute decals. Posting more than one plane in one day: is that cool?

 

Cheers,

Thanks everyone! Jim, it's a fun build--there's a lot you can put into it that won't be seen, but the fit was not bad. The most work I put into it was replacing the wing inlet ducting (wing halves would leave a nasty exposed seam, and the gloss finish. Also note the white in the decals is translucent; I applied a spare set to go over the originals.

 

Cheers,

 

Tom
