After what seems like months of work, my rendition of the enormous, complex and very impressive, Airfix 1:24 F6F Hellcat, is finally finished. Here are some completed shots of the model, finished in my chosen scheme depicting an F6F-5K variant, rather than one of the armed versions offered in the kit. I would like to thank Jonathan Mock for his help with this model, all of the markings that are seen on it being sprayed through masks, custom-cut by him especially for this project. Cheers buddy!

Spencer: Looks like a well worn drone to me. That’s a very busy kit isn’t it. Outstanding job. Thanks for showing us your handy work.
