Rod bettencourt Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Hi Gents, Here are a few pictures of my F4F-4 wildcat. I used Cutting Edge decals and model master paints. Thanks for looking. Rod 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCinLA Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Beautiful work - particularly with the weathered/faded paint finish. I do wish the kit Mfrs would have dropped the drop tanks - they were only ever carried once by F4F-4s, when VF-5 used them at Santa Cruz. Used some in the Atlantic, but that was it.
