Hello to everyone, it´s the first time i post on this forum. I am basically a 1/35 creature, but my kids are always trying to get me into planes. That`s why i decided to give it a try and bought a 1/48 Hellcat. Since I am a newbie to this part of the hobby, every single piece of advice will be aprecciated, but my main question is about painting. I know i am not very specific but as i said am used to build military vehicles and i guess there would be a lot of tips you guys can share. Thanks in advance.

Hi and welcome. I think you will find that armour and aircraft modellers share most techniques. When consructing aircraft you must remember that you won't be able to hide a bad seam under a sandbag or clump of mud! As far as painting goes aircraft generally have a cleaner finish but the wonderful weathering techniques that armour builders use can still be applied, just in moderation.Originally posted by \Hello to everyone, it´s the first time i post on this forum.

If you have any specific questions about particular aircraft just ask away, we'll try to give you answers
