It's been a short time since I posted a A/C model subject here, but here is my Tamiya 48 scale F4 Wildcat created as a Royal Navy Martlet V, used for anti-submarine patrols protecting the Gibraltar convoys during '44. The bird is X-F JV394 piloted by S/Lt D.White of 842 Sqn based on HMS Fencer in the Bay of Biscay during this period.
The model is OOB, with exception of the decals which are mix and match from the spares box, the enamels used on this are:- AeroMaster 'Warbird' RAF Sky for the undersurfaces, Humbrol Extra Dark Sea Grey / Slate Grey uppersurfaces, pastels where used for the exhaust, gun flash and cordite stains.
