Revell 1/144 Hellcat and Tempest
Re: Revell 1/144 Hellcat and Tempest
And here I am complaining about how small 1/48 scale parts are! Great work on some truly tiny modeling! Those rockets must be microscopic!

The Hellcat and one Tempest have their decals. These are the Revell decals. Good quality, nothing to complain about. The second Tempest will have a hodgepodge of decals for its Zirkus Rosarius markings.

Terrific work on these!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Decals on the captured Tempest. Markings are from the spare box and in all honesty “approximations”. They do have to be oversized but some are to big. For instance de white T9. The Balkenkreuzen under the wing are supposed to be unaligned. Weird but that is what the sources say.

I never realized that the Germans captured a Tempest or two...

The Tempests are done. A lot fun for the one euro that I paid. They are a bit toyish but that is to be expected for such old and small kits.
