Description:
Here are some pictures of my 1/48 Testors F8F Bearcat that I built last year. While the kit is showing its age, it still builds up into a pretty decent model with some work for not a lot of cash.

I detailed the cockpit and gear
using the Eduard PE set. The
aerials are stretched sprue and fly fishing line.
I used Model Master paints
throughout. The plane got a heavy
dose of weathering using old thinner washes and pastels.
While the end result isn’t a
masterpiece, I nonetheless like the way it looks.
It’s presently on display at BTB Hobbies in Little Rock, AR.
I hope you all like it.
