Read MoreF8F-1 Bearcat by Dave Ball
Member Dave Ball built this F8F-1 Bearcat in 1/48 scale from Hobby Boss. Dave had this to say … “It is the 1/48 scale Hobbyboss kit. Everything is stock out of the box except I added pe seatbelts and used brass tubing for the exhaust headers and the .50 cal. guns. It is painted with Model Master paints and the decals are a combination of stock decals and decals from the old Testors kit.” Great job Dave. Enjoy!
