This
is the 1/48th F6F-3 Hellcat by Hobby Boss... This is the first Hobby Boss kit
that I have built, and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the
kit - it was a real pleasure to build.

I chose to
moderately weather the kit by using a combination of pre & post
shading & pastels - and a few airbrushed streaks of smoke staining for
the exhaust and wing mounted MG's.
I must admit
that I was far more pleased with the result on the top surface of the
model - but this was my first go at smoke staining, and I was pretty
satisfied with the overall effect in the end.
This
was my first Hellcat, and I would like to build another of Hobby Boss's 1/48
offerings in the future :-)
