Very well done! I love that Hasegawa kit. However, the Intermediate blue looks a bit on the greenish side...maybe it's the lighting? I like the weathering though..nice touch!

very nice Hellcat Steve I have the -5 in the the overall Sea Blue scheme, I will be adding the -3 at some point. Are these the kit decals, if not who's?

Steve, yet another example of excellent modelling!!
you've got to be an airbrush expert!
Just noted you don't show pictures of the cockpit of your aircrafts.
But looking at the paintjob on the outside, the cockpit will probably be of the same quality!!

Mal,
These are the kit decals, right out of the box. I know there are a lot of complaints about Hasegawa decals, but these were great.
Thank you all for the feedback, by the way, the major complaint with these hasegawa hellcats is the fact that while you are provided with a two piece canopy, on this kit you cannot display it in the open position, it's just impossible!.
I really enjoy detailing pits.....
