The fit on the wings of the heller kit were horrible, and the academy kit had recessed panel lines. However, i think the Heller kit has a better shape and looks more like a hellcat.

Looking good!

Did you like one kit better than the other? 

In the pattern: Scale Shipyard's 1/48 Balao Class Sub! leaning out the list...NOT! Ha, added to it again - Viper MkVii, 1/32 THUD & F-15J plus a weekend madness build!

Really nice. Some of those old Heller kits are still really good builds
