    In honor of Jim's book on the Wildcat, the Eduard F4F-4 (early version) with a "critical mass" of aftermarket in the form of Eduard's 3D printed cockpit and drop tank. Not sure whose markings it will end up as right, but leaning towatrd Stan Vejtasa, as shown on the boxart.

    Here are some WIP shots. Ready for camo paint next.
    You don't really see that much of the cockpit when the fuselage is closed up, but what you do see of the brassin cockpit is super-nice detail.

    Looking very good, Tom @tcinla
    Indeed a pity the view on the cockpit limited now.
