I just love these Eduard Hellcat kits, beautiful detail and so easy to build. This one took longer with the PE and resin parts, probably more so because I do not use PE and resin all that much.

Camo is Mission Models and Gunze, other paint used, Tamiya and Vallejo metal colour. Flory Dark Dirt wash, oil paints and Vallejo matte varnish.

Looks like a very nice build. I especially like the base you’ve got it sitting on. Very cool idea!

My one bit of constructive criticism would be that the wear and tear looks to be a different level between the top and bottom. 

All in all though, I think you did a nice job, especially with the Royal Navy colors. Hellcats look very nice in this scheme!

Well Grant, that is a killer looking BFA Hellcat. Love the invasion stripes too. That is a beautiful build all the way around.
