Winnie Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 Wish I'd not decided to fold mine... it caused me to shelve the kit for a bit... I'll take mine out again soon though, need my Butch O'Hare plane! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with your build! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep 'em comin Peter Thanks Peter. I have to say, it LOOKS like a Wildcat! LOL After the painting and decaling are done it ought to look pretty nice. I have another set of Wolfpack decals coming from SB. The one I ordered previously is 1/48!!! I hate it when I screw up like that! (Not the 1st time either.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnB Posted December 30, 2021 Author Share Posted December 30, 2021 Main painting done. I'll hit it with some clear gloss so I can add the decals. Then some weathering, etc. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The background should show up as gray not red-brown. Go figure. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
