jimbo Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 As I mentioned in my resurrected thread (from 2007!) in the 'In The Works' category, I finished up my Hobbycraft boxing of the Trumpeter F4F-4 Wildcat. I did most of the finishing in 2014-2015 but it sat again for a few years until last night when I finally re-did the aerials with EZ Line. I had made the masts out of brass, as the plastic ones were just to fragile to hold an aerial no matter what the material used. So, here's a few rough finished portraits. She's decorated rather plainly, I think it's nice celebrating the vast majority of aircraft that did not get a flashy paint job or nose art or whatever. Just good old #3, finally done! Enjoy and thanks for looking in. Jimbo Starfighter, Rocat, Trak-Tor and 11 others 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
