Album info

A work in progress - Eduard 1/48 Grumman F6F-3 Hellcat Weekend Edition with some extras. I'm using Ultracast's resin seat and will use their propeller and wheels too. There's some Eduard photo etched brass in it, but I mistakenly bought the top-up set to the Profipack so it's general cockpit and armour bulkhead improvements but with no PE instrument panel or ignition harness (or seatbelts, but the Ultracast seat has them so no problem).

Markings are from a Montex mask set, and paints are all Colourcoats:

ACUS01 for Grumman Gray primer
ACUS09 - ANA611 Interior Green
various detail colours
ACUS07 - ANA606 Semi-Gloss Sea Blue for tops of wings and tail
ACUS09 - ANA608 Intermediate Blue
ACUS33 - ANA607 Non-Specular Sea Blue for top of fuselage
ACUS37 - ANA601 Insignia White for undersides and insignias
ACUS39 - ANA605 Insignia Blue for insignias
