New build video of the Eduard Profipack Grumman F6F-5 Hellcat in 1/72 scale, and final video for 2021. I had this kit waiting in my stash for over two years and thought it was a good time to build it since I finally wanted to tackle photo etch for the first time. I had already built the Eduard Weekend Edition F6F-5N Hellcat Nightfighter so I knew what to expect – and where I could improve. The model shows a late F6F-5 version flown in May 1945. White 115 was part of VF-83 aboard USS Essex. The F6F Hellcat was the dominant fighter in the second half of the Pacific War and destroyed more enemy aircraft than any other Allied naval aircraft. Let me know what you think of this build. Your comments and opinions are highly appreciated. Please bear in mind I am not a professional modeler, I just build these models for fun and relaxation and to help regain my mental and physical health.
