1/48 Tamiya F4F-4

Grumman F-4F4 Wildcat (Tamiya 1/48)
Another 20+ year resident of the stash. Built straight from the box with the exception of the EZ-Line antenna. Finished with Mr. Color paints, Tamiya panel line wash, and AK weathering pencils. The kit decals added some drama but [...]

Academy 1/72 F4F-4 Wildcat, Atlantic Theater
This was a nice little kit – engraved panel lines and some larger fastener details around the cowl/nose area. They were a bit like new Airfix kits, waaayyy over scale! I added a few additional missing panel lines and then riveted the [...]
