Good day everyone, recently I put an order in for four Merit F4F-4 Fighter planes (due to some difficulty finding the old
WoW planes) as well as four Merit SBD-3 Dive Bombers. This was due to seeing a few of the gentlemen on this forum showcasing their Merit models and I could not help myself but decided to branch out and try some unofficial minis. Today they arrived in the mail.
I'm waiting on some Litko bases to hopefully get them airborne.
So far I have only opened the Wildcats in order to look them over and have yet to open the Dauntless pack. I'm quite pleased with the models, my only possible gripe being the undercarriage seem a little flimsy but that is no problem as I plan to do away with them. Which brings me to my question to you, what would you more hobby savvy chaps suggest? The Wildcats come with no wheel wells and (OK I just opened the SBD's to check) the SBD's appear to have decent wheel wells so there should be no problems there. So any help would be greatly appreciated.
One last question, does anyone know of a good site/resource for how to mark these aircraft as I am not sure which route I want to go (early or mid/late war).
Thanks in advance!
