Falconxlvi Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 (edited) I finished up a pair of Eduard F6F-3s from their latest Profipack boxings. What a great little kit! The yellow nose bird has Brassin wheels and bombs while the cat mouth scheme has master barrels. I used mission models insignia white, intermediate blue, and gloss sea blue for the principle colors. Thanks for looking! Steve And a few in-progress shots since I didn’t do an in-progress thread for these... Edited July 19, 2020 by Falconxlvi More pictures Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hammerhead11 Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 These are excellent! If you hadn't put it in the title, I would have guessed they were the 48th scale kit. I am a fan of the Eduard Hellcats. -Brett Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I hope to do the 1/48 Eduard Hellcat someday - probably the F6F-5 version, but I’m a bit ready for a new subject at the moment. They are great kits! 4 hours ago, wxltcol said: Wow, outstanding job all around! The cockpits are amazing. Tom Thanks Tom! The out of the box etch is really great, if not a bit too fiddly 😂 I actually did one etch instrument panel and one using just decals for a comparison- here are the differences below Steve Quote Link to post Share on other sites
11bee Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 (edited) Wow, just saw your post, nice work. That’s some seriously nice detail for a tiny scale kit. Never seen WF-137 before, those are interesting markings. Is she a stateside training bird? Edited July 21, 2020 by 11bee Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Definitely a cool nose marking on that one. 3 hours ago, pollie said: Very nice Hellcats! Thanks for taking a look 👍🏻 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
