Thanks a lot Rowan!
Of course both aircraft were carrier based and the situation is not fully suited, but it sets the models (Nick these are actually 2 ) in perspective.
I have a Build log for the FM-2 and for the F4F-3 there is at least this thread ... just if you want to read a bit about the construction ....
thanks for the kind comment Nick!
all the best

Hi Steffen,
nice Wildcats you have made, I also like these Hobbyboss kits (have all version in my pile, as I also want to build some Martlets). In the meantime this dio is well known here. I visited Mark last weekend, because I had some Vietnam Warriors for him. With this perfect weather on Saturday, we took some pictures of my latest Warhawks on his dios .....
Happy modelling
Torsten

Nice work, Steffen- gotta love those Cats! I've been quietly following your builds and have enjoyed them immensely. I have a Hobbyboss F4F-4 and the Eduard brass sets- gotta finish a couple of builds so I can dig into a "simple" build! ;D
Cheers on a great diorama-

Thank you Chuk and Yoni!
hey Chuck .. I am enjoying your threads too, though i think you go over board with some aspects of your builds, so it would be nice to watch a "simple" build of you as a diversion
cheers
Steffen
