Okay guys here the finished daylight pics of my Hellcat.
Fantastic kit parts are beautifully detailed and fit perfectly the only issues I had where due to myself on not the kit itself.
The decals where also fantastic.
I would highly recommend this kit is your going to build this aircraft.
On with the pics.
As always comment feedback and criticism welcome.

I've seen master class several times Gupp... yours is pretty damn close.
She's a winner. You put her on a nice little base and she'd win a show or two I'll bet.
That reminds me, Fernando Duarte just did up a simple little base that's designed to look like the wooden deck of an aircraft carrier.
Check his channel out it's one of his latest videos.
