Nice builds everyone!  Sorry I haven't been able to get to my builds for the GB yet.  I don't think I will be able to by the end of the month either.  My work schedule changed and I was unable to get to the bench.

 I am moving again soon so I imagine most of my modeling stuff will be packed up sooner than later.   Luckily I'm only moving 20 miles south of my current residence so it shouldn't be that dramatic.......I hope I didn't just jinx myself.

As usual my eyes were bigger than my stomach when it comes to group builds.  Never got around to the Wildcat, but here's where I got on the Bearcat for the Monogram Mafia GB.

 Will post pics when she's finished.

Looks good there ,bud. Toast    BTW- I like your work standYes.

I've several ideas for my Testors 1/48 Bearcat for when ever I get around to building it. From the orange and blue Gulfhawk markings to an all out unlimited gold racer that would make Rare Bear look tame . One latest idea is a  what if the F8F arrived on the scene a couple years earlier, with the Bearcat in tricolor markings and a nice collection of  kill markings .

Hi Everyone:

Here's the Tigercat I promised some time ago ...

The F7F drone was developed by Bell Aircraft and re-designated F7F-3K under a USN contract during 1945/46. The overall yellow aircraft crashed at MCAS Cherry Point, NC after the final demonstration flight on August 8, 1946.

The first F7 prototype during developmental tests by Grumman and USN pilots during 1943 and 1944. The two prototypes were the only Tigercats to fly in the natural metal finish.
