discussion Johns Hobby Boss Wildcat 1/48

[john i am]

All finished and I won't be rushing to do another one. It's a nicely detailed kit but having the fuselage in three parts was very problematic when trying to align all the joints lots of glue and patience needed here.

And the bling arrives Great job John, that Wildcat looks awesome. Some subtle weathering effect in there too, suits the era.

Very nice and neat John. Great yellow and silver paint work as neither are easy.

Very nice john, cracking colour scheme.

I love yellow-wing subjects, and you've done a great job with the Wildcat. Superb.

That's great, John. The NMF bits have come out really well. Nice colour scheme - I didn't realise the yellow-wings scheme went on long enough to be applied to Wildcats. You usually associate it with biplanes or Peashooters and the like.
