discussion Hobby Boss Hellcat

[michaelm]

Picked up this little kit at a local charity shop for the princely sum of £1:50, spot the missing part.

First time with a Hobby Boss kit and thought it was great.

What do you think?

Nice little kit and a great price (how come i never find any in charity shops? )

I also think a few more pictures would show it off a bit more

I know diddly squat about aircraft but shouldn't the propeller have a nose cone thing on it .. is that the missing bit?

Thanks guys,

Tony you got it in one, the drop tank is missing I may have a root through the spares to try and find something that fits 's aor I may just leave it.

Here's some more pic Cheers M
