Looks great. Nice to see a Hellcat in Royal Navy livery.

Most, like myself always see a Hellcat in the typical weathered blue with light gray on it‘s belly.  Your Hellcat with a camofluage motif is stunning.  And adds a fresh look overall.  As for the build, you are building an aircraft that is and always is, fantastic.  Looking back on all of your builds, they are all fantastic.  Your building technique is so professiona!
