Welcome to the site mate.
Wildcat,
I like the last one-DOWN WITH EVERYTHING...
Did this pilot mean Jerries or that lady?

Heh....I love the irony of the plane being named "Down with Everything", about three feet in front of additional markings that read "UP".


Oh, and welcome Pete, you lucky b*stard!!!!!

Dunno, but it makes for a nice looking spit IMO. Here's my effort at modelling this particular aircraft.

Love that model Wildcat!

You did a great job! What colour are the exhausts? I always have trouble getting them the right colour.

Thanks Alex. I used Tamiya Flat brown XF-10 for the exhausts. Not accurate but good enough for me
