Papa 695s 1/48 Eduard Hellcat

[papa 695]

This is going to be my build for Karl’s Pacific GB

There are 4 options for the Pacific theatre

But I’m not sure which one I’m going to do. But I’ve narrowed it down to one of these two.

I forgot to say, there are 2 kits in the box.

With 2 kits you don't have to narrow it down............
I've settled on a Hellcat too, but mine will be Extra Dark Sea Blue so the camoflage would be nice to see.

 

[The Smythe Meister]

Lovely that is...
... Looking forward to seeing this mate.

Cool.... Have a Weekend one in the stash....at least it's in the Hellcat line!!!

 

[Geoffers]

I’m looking forward to seeing you knock this one into shape

I want the other one to do this version Karl.

Started on this one, first off is the cockpit, with all the fiddly PE that goes with it.

[papa 695]

Next part, I’m going to build the engine

 

[papa 695]

Got the engine completed, and put the fuselage halves together.

 

[langy71]

great work so far, that engine looks brilliant

 

[papa 695]

Got the seams cleaned up, also put the wings, tail plains and engine cowling together.

I will need to put some primer on to check the seams properly.
