HerculesPA_2 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 (edited) Hello friends. I started last week a new model that I was commissioned. The fully scratchbuild model is a 1/32 scale Grumman Hellcat F-6F in polystyrene plastic with resin parts such as wheels and propellers and canopy in acetate plastic. The construction is well advanced with almost all the fuselage ready including the rivets marked and wing installed. In the coming days I will post more photos of progress. Thank you!

Out2gtcha Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Wow, that is some seriously ambitious and great looking scratch work there! And I thought I was crazy for going with the "Trumpegawa" F6F with Trumpeter wings and Has fuselage. Looking forward to more!
