Just a simple dio for my HellCat. The kit is 1/48 Eduard and figures are from Verlinden. Hope you like the pics

A most impressive build of the Eduard 1/48 scale F6F-3 Hellcat, coupled with a simple yet effective display diorama. Very nicely done.

What did you use to top the base? Very nice work.

I like this. The figures are well painted and it's a clean build.

My apology for the late reply guys. I printed the top of the base from a picture downloaded from the net of the WW2 Navy Carrier, then glued it on to the base. It's that simple but it does the trick . And thanks for the comments.

No problem. The print looks good, I'll have to try that too.
Thank you,
