Eduard 1/48 Hellcat Mk I.
First model of a Dual Combo edition. Colors from Humbrol, Model Master and Testors, resin seat and wheels from Ultracast, resin gun cannons from Quickboost, PE from the kit, extra detailing and corrections on the surface, cockpit and engine. Painted insignias and codes, stencils from the kit. Oils, watercolor pencils and pigments from Abteilung and AK Interactive. I always liked this FAA scheme and finally I built my own. And as you can see, I was working on the two kits.
Congratulations, Ruben! An awesome result!
Thank you Spiros.
Really nice
I always liked this scheme of the big cat.
G’day Ruben (@rubentorres),
Nicely done.
I built this kit years ago and used the kit wheels. They do look on the skinny side, so your decision to use aftermarked wheels was a good one.
Liked!
Thank you, although Eduard offers their own resin wheels for this kit, I had the Ultracast ones since long ago.
That's an amazing Hellcat, Ruben @rubentorres
Excellent work on the details and painting.
Thank you, getting the white border on the letters was a challenge.
Nicely done, Ruben. Always like the Hellcat in camo
Man, I really like that! Love the weathering on this. Excellent work!
Thank you, Greg.
Nice work, Ruben. I’m a fan if that kit.
An interesting surface, but the cockpit was a disappointment. That´s why I made my own.
Very nice work on this Ruben, and a terrific result.
Thank you for leaving a line here.
Superbly done from prop to tail, Ruben.
Thank you Eric.
