Tamiya 1/48 Grumman F4F-4 Wildcat plastic model build

this video is a build video on my Ford F4F-4 Wildcat

Nice build of this kit. The Wildcat didn't have a solid floor, only the foot channels. Hence the 2 lower windows. With the incorrect areas painted black + a closed canopy you can't tell.

This F4F came out great! I loved building this kit but you did it way better

[@BigFred1925]

Really nice. Good informative video.

Good post!!! I just wished you showed how you 'blended' the two (2) colors of the A/C .... any masking, clays, or Just straight shot with airbrush? As far as the weathering and panel lining.......... might have shown how you did that part, especially. I do have the Same kit and plan on building it ..... one of these days, along with my other USN WW2 A/C...this one, Hellcat, Devestator, Avenger, Daughtless, Helldiver, and Corsair. But all together...Good Show!!! ESPECIALLY the tail fin....Very Nicely Done!

Very nice, really enjoyed your vid thankyou,,,,,,wish these manufactures would place a cockpit pilot on board as its always looks better when completed, especially when the canopy is opened,,,,,,on there boxes they show a pilot but when opening expecting to see one there isnt any,,,very annoying but thats only my opinion ,,thx all the same,,cheers my friend

Looks good, I might have to get one sometime.

Great build mate...I'm doing the 1/72 Airfix F4F and I got some good tips for that.

[@scottreed227]

No attention paid to historical accuracy and lazy/sloppy painting. No effort to clean up errors and lack of attention to detail--cockpit is a vague mess.

Grand job. I'm planning on doing as many US carrier borne planes as I can starting with the Dauntless

[@RCUKScaleModels]

very nice have a 1/48 Dauntless not yet started it

[@gta4ever3003]

Well done Sir!!! ,,👍

[@Paul1970]

Nice job! The weathering looks cool. I just bought this kit and started on it :)

[@bfaproductions7121]

I bought one of these kits after the Pandemic started as a birthday gift to myself. I haven't fully built it yet because I don't have all of the paints but I have been able to glue a lot of it together

[@MJM804]

Absolutely fantastic build. What color did you use for wheel hubs please? Instructions don’t say!

[@RCUKScaleModels]

I used the grumman Grey on the wheel hubs

[@Marigold_Tearooms]

RC UK Scale Models thankyou! So the same colour as the underside? I was going to paint that Humbrol 64

You are struggling to identify the engine mount

[@Steevels]

What colour did you use for your Grumman Grey?

[@RCUKScaleModels]
