providence Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Hi everyone, This is my last airplane. The Eduard kit is outsanding and it was a trus pleasure to build it. I wanted to have a well weathered model, something like a well worn Wildcat, during the battle of Coral sea. I hope you will like it : Regards Providence 35 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstroCanary Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 I literally just ordered one of these today (to do the RN North Africa scheme)! Nicely done. Looks great on the base, too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pajarito Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Hi Providence, Impressive build! Very nice weathering, especially underneath. I really fancy the -3 in their very early camo. I built the old Monogram 1/48 kit with a plethora of aftermarket (including a vac-form windshield and canopy), but lost it to the jaws of an anxious yellow lab over a decade ago. I've got the Tamiya 1/48 kit somewhere in the stash. Cheers, Igna 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you say something about deck? Merci The deck come from a french company, It s a thin piece a hard paper with the deck of an US aircraft carrier print on the top. I find it quite convincing, and you? I order it from my favorite french shop : https://www.oupsmodel.com/diorama-accessoires-divers/94473-m-models-nt0062-pont-de-porte-avion-us-wwii-148.html Regards Providence 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
