A Big Kitty
I thought it would be time to start the Airfix 24 scale F6F-5. So far I think it is a fairly decent kit and I have searched out reviews on it before I bought it. I started the pit today and I am pretty much in the paint phase and throwing some washes on it. I am making this a three or four month build since I would like to have it done before the April show here in Tulsa.

That will be a big one! Great details in the pit at that scale. All out of the box?
Thanks,

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy.......
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!"..

Not really. I have extras that I'll use but the high dollar extra that I have, the Airscale interior, I may think twice. Ill have to see.keavdog wrote:That will be a big one! Great details in the pit at that scale. All out of the box?

Re: A Big Kitty
Happy that your back and building here once again! I will be following this for sure. I recently discovered a Trumpeter 1/32 F6F5-5N kit I had forgotten about with a Big Ed set for it. This might be what gets on my bench soon. I will be interested in how you do your humongous bird as your work is always stellar
