Well it is WWII PTO, The Hellcat helped define that side of the conflict for the USN! Markings for four different aircraft, I'll be attempting to do "Paper Doll" of VF-27 flown by Lt. Carl A. Brown from the USS Princeton. This aircraft is the subject of the rather large box's airtwork.



 
And so the pain begins
There is a novel on must go over. Life magazine was never this big....
First one must decide how they wish the finished model to be, wing folder, or not, gear down or not...


Do you want a motor for the prop?

Then on to the first steps...

Started with the first steps... guess that was as good a place as any, I will probably not be staying in order though...
