Airfix 1/24th Hellcat II NF (F6F-5N), KD127, 892 NAS, Drem, Scotland, mid-1945.
Greetings all - and all the best for coming year.
Here's my first completion of 2024 which nearly made 2023 but the cold, wet weather was against me for the final varnish coat! The Airfix 1/24th Hellcat is well known and documented so I'll [...]
Academy 1/48 SBD 3 Dauntless
This model is one of the Enterprise Dauntless at the Battle of Midway. Only my second Navy plane but since I purchased the Vallejo Air paint set for WWII naval I will be doing more. I have a Hellcat ready to go soon.

Eduard 1:48 Grumman F6F-5 (Late) ProflPACK Kit #8224
Its an Eduard kit so nuff said. I used the PE but this is probably my last time as when you close the canopy not much is seen. These were attached with Lepage 12, 5 Minute Epoxy. The resin wheels are a big improvement over the plastic [...]
Hellcat II
Built this at the same time as the Hurricane I posted here a few weeks ago but only got around to finishing it this morning. Fairly straightforward build, could have done without the separate fin-tip antenna post which was instantly [...]
Nocturnal Predator...1/48 Grumman F6F-5N Hellcat, VMF(N)-533 "Black Mac's Killers", USMC
Hellcat double completed, after the F6F-3 now a -5N.
Eduard Weekend Edition released in 2016. Sadly the fuselage code F(N)4 is oversized, also the fuselage number 21 and the cowl number 88 of the second included scheme are. Funny thing is [...]

I received the Hellcat model completely unexpectedly for my name day. I didn't even know that the model was available under this brand. After looking at the contents of the box, I was sure it would be [...]
