MONOGRAM 1/48 F6F-5K HELLCAT DRONE

My Hellcats, all in 1/48.
I posted several photos of the Eduard Weekend Edition Hellcat II a couple of years ago when I built it. I added resin wheels, straps for the drop tank from scrap p/e, and p/e belts. This is the best Hellcat kit available today. Very [...]
