I've taken some new shots of my Hellcat Mk. 1 with the hopes that you all will be actually be able to see it now... :-) :-) :-)
The lighting was a litte better today... but not much. We're supposed to get some sun but that won't be for a week or so!
Hope you guys like em-
cheers

Very nice Hellcat there, you did very well on the paint job. Just an observation, I think the trees and building in the background are a little outof scale, lol!

Hi BigTon
I've brightened up your pics by playing with the "Levels" in Photoshop. Most picture editing software allows you to do this and it's a neat way to bring out the detail that is sometimes hidden in a pic.
All the best

Thanks for the kind words guys
Merlin- Thanks for the tip... I happen to have photoshop myself so I'll have to keep that in mind!
Davester- I totally agree, but I couldn't talk my neighbor into planting some redwoods. Ohhhhh wait, sorry you ment they should be smaller! I'm not used to having people tell me I need smaller wood...it's usually the other way around. :-) :-) :-)
Rv1963 and Mal- Thanks for the weathering compliments. I used a wash of white acrylics and some dry pastels. I also used some antique white acrylic craft paint strait to dry-brush some of the leading edges and what-not.
Like i said before...thanks for all the kind words! I respect the work of all you guys so it means a lot. Cheers!!!
