I am building this F8F-1 Bearcat for SMA naval aircraft build and thought I would post it here at home base as well. Here is how things stand right now. Just really started today. Thanks for looking and comments are always welcome.

Cool. Always liked the look of this plane. What markings are you thinking of doing?

Yeah I have always liked it too.

I will use what is in the box as I want to do USN plane, but we'll see.

Cool - I've done that same kit a couple of years ago. Did the box art decals and it was a very nice kit to build. The ducting and the wing root fit was the only trouble I had so you may need to be careful there. You'll enjoy it though :v

I'm looking forward to it. I have not done a 32 scale plane for about a year. The last one was a P-47.

Sweet, I have this one in my stash as well, looking forward to see how yours goes together ! (y)
 
I finished up the instrument panels now I am moving on to the firewall and the cockpit seat back and belts. Here's the progress so far. Thanks for looking and comments are welcome.
