andy s Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Finished a few weeks ago this has eduard cockpit details and scratchbuilt wingfold and is in the markings of VB-84 aboard the USS Bunker Hill in Febuary 1945. Cheers Drew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baldmanwithsnake Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Thats lovely! How did you do the panel lines? It's just the effect I want for my Hellcat (When I feel confident to start it), it's a 1/32nd Trumpter F6F-5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 I'm speechless,that's a result considering it's not the easiest kit to build. Stephen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy s Posted August 15, 2010 Author Share Posted August 15, 2010 Gorgeous - very nice indeed! Hi the panel lines were done with a thin oil wash of white and yellow ochre,I have also used promodeller light wash with the same result as here hope this helps cheers Drew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter W Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 (edited) Drew, That is a remarkable looking Helldiver, hope I can come close when I build my Accurate Miniatures one. Great finish. Pete Edited August 15, 2010 by Peter W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davec_24 Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 That's nice! I love the detailed touches, like the mixed ammunition types on the MG belts (rear cockpit), and you'd never guess the wingfold was scratch-built. But don't they just look much better with the wings folded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldmanwithsnake Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 thanks Andy, hope my Hellcat looks half as good as your Helldiver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
