Series 2 - USS Lexington Hellcat

Post by AirstrikeToys » Sun Jun 22, 2008 1:06 pm

Here's a pic of Series 2 - F6F Hellcat of the USS Lexington. Plane #1 is now up on eBay. I changed up the exhaust plume a little adding more rust.

Thanks.

How about a Bunker Hill to match up with the 21C Avenger and Corsair?

Hello Patrick:

Looking forward to picking up all 4 of the hellcats (series 2,3,4 & 5).

Please let the board know when these will be available for order.

I appreciate what you bring to the world of 1:18 scale.

John Lumley

:D
One hundred and fifty three - 1:18 scale aircraft on the ceiling looks :shock: damn good!

Thanks! I will give everyone a heads up. They should be available in about a week. I'm trying to get a couple more prototypes done and just waiting on the decals to show up... :?

Plus, I'm making a slight adjustment to the line up and throwing in a couple of surprises to be released in July... :D

Let me go ahead and answer 1 question at least, B24guy - No not yet. :lol: Soon, but not yet... :P

Hello ! i have the project to paint myself an avenger in French marking and doing the same for each 1/18 plane that we used after WW2 (P51, P47, and hellcat !)

do you plan to do such a model because your realisations will be better than mine ! i will order from you happily !

I do see a couple of French WWII planes in the future... I have to get some approvals first though.

Also, under the "lend / lease act", I think royal navy will have first dib's on the planes... :mrgreen: Keeping an eye out for you B24Guy...:mrgreen:
