gunpowder Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 This lockdown situation gave me a little more time to do some modelling. I have given up on 1/32 and 1/24 i think. I keep buying them , then loads of aftermarket , starting them , getting bored with them and selling them on. Time for a change. I want to build good quality models , that actually fit on a shelf. I will not be using aftermarket if i can help it. I have been getting more into the Pacific Theatre and so have decided to go with planes from that. I will be sticking to Accurate miniatures or italeri , Tamiya and Hasegawa. I really dont have the patience for poor fitting kits anymore. This kit has really bought the fun back into modelling. Beautifully detailed and easy to build. I have a great time just building from the box. The problem is i think i need the rest of the F4U line now! Apologies for pics i took them on my Iphone Martinnfb, coogrfan, KUROK and 18 others 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 Looks great to me, and yes, the Tamiya kits are great. A person has to really try to mess them up. Rockie Yarwood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O.W Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 Morning Gunpowder, Great build, I really love the tri color scheme. In the near future I'm going to start the Airfix 1/24 F6 Hellcat I bought from you. After a lot of research I dit find some pics of the F6F-5 in a tri color scheme. In my opinion there are way more options and possibilities in weathering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
