Eduard 1/48 Wildcat Mk.VI
I got this one as part of my Birthday present last year along with a Bunny Club Membership.
Of course this one had to be an FAA subject.
The colours should probably be the equivalent ones but I don't have them so standard TSS it was and to [...]
1:32 Scale, Trumpeter, F4F-4, 'Wildcat'
Decent kit that went together very well. Building her with wings deployed was a little bit of a pain in the hind quarters, While Trumpeter gives you the option of folded or extended wings, I think the kit is designed more to have the [...]

When Eduard released their first F4F-3 Wildcat I bought it straight away and love the model they provided, a great little kit with amazing details and a pain-free good fitting build process. We knew they were planning on doing a whole line [...]
1/48 Wildcat VI (FM-2).
I finally got to build my first Eduard Wildcat. Eduard hit a home run with this one. Not only is it an accurate FM-2, but Eduard really raised the bar for 1/48 Wildcats. This kit renders the Tamiya Wildcat obsolete and in my opinion [...]
War Games...1/48 Grumman F4F-3A Wildcat, VMF-111 "Devil Dogs", USMC
Next naval aviation subject finished by my dad.
Took a second attempt to finish it, the first model didn´t make it to finish because my dad didn´t get along with Eduard´s complex and fragile landing gear.
Built oob, painted with AK RC [...]
