Bummer about that intake Drew but I know you'll get it fixed...or just leave it...I probably would lol. My take is just like yours...no one ever comes to my house and grabs a model off my shelf to look at it. Fantastic work on that instrument panel though man

Thanks, Joe! The white colored pencil worked great. Yeah, I think I might just leave the intake as is. Like Homer Simpson, I’ll probably make it worse if I try to fix it!

Looks awesome, thanks for the build. I'm building my first Stuka model, same kit. Didn't fit at the wing/fuselage joint for me, and I had to sand about a half mm. So I didn't need any filler. It's a super cheap kit, what else do you want, lol. It definitely takes some creativity to get this kit good. Biggest problem with this kit: No post holes for the gun pods. I just cut the nubs off and glued it to the pads where the holes should have been! once you put the wing/pod interface pieces on, it becomes obvious. They do tilt a certain way so keep left/right...right? Yeah, I'm dreading the canopy mask!

Great series, Drew and nice job on the kit. I haven't built one of Tamiya's 1/48 armor kits yet, but I am looking forward to it. The cat showing up reminded me of those great movies in the '50s... you know, the ones where a cat gets mutated from nuclear testing in the Nevada desert and rampages through Vegas. Anyway, great stuff, amigo. What's next?

I built one recently. I was aware of the fitting of the main body and front fuselage. I built the old monogram as a kid. I built this revell for nostalgia reasons. This time instead of glueing the main body top and bottom together. I glued the front with top first or bottom whichever. Once the top and front fuselage has been glued. i then glued the bottom joint to the front.

I´m building this one right now and it´s the 3rd Hellcat I´m working on, first as the Hobby Boss brand. The cockpit seems huge compared to eduard´s ou hasegawa´s. It seems the cockpit and specially the seat is in 1/32 scale. I´ll probably replace the seat with some spare one in real 1/48. Other than that it´s a nice and cheat kit, and it got the option to put the wings in the fold position.
