Seeing Double

Yes, a pair of Grumman Hellcats. Work on these two was going really well, but a well-known hobby supplier beginning with H does not operate a particularly swift service and I am waiting for a set of decals from them. They know who they are.

One F6F will be completed with wings folded. This is a surprisingly tricky job to do. The odd cut angles rule out the razor saw, leaving me only the Swann Morton No.3. As you can see, it has gone well though. Not even the usual blood-letting which traditionally accompanies jobs like these. More on these cats later.
