Hobby Boss 1/48 F8F-2 Bearcat

Well... kinda saying it's an F8F-1B. Great kit overall. Could use some 3d cockpit decals though and the glass is pretty thick. OOB except for the super scale decals which worked pretty well - VF-17 (original Jolly Rogers) 1946

I really like the finish on the dark navy blue paintwork! Great looking Cat!

Very nice finish. Your group shot really shows how big the Hellcat is

Great looking Bearcat John! I love the family photo!

[keavdog]

Thanks all. I read the Bearcat was 2000lbs lighter than the Hellcat!

Great looking build. She looks good with all the others.

Well done Bearcat and a nice collection, John. It and the Wildcat were not so different in size, were they.

[buddho]

Making a fine addition to your immaculate collection. Well done!

You turned out one sharp looking Bearcat John. Really nice work.
