Navairfan Posted August 3, 2014 Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 Here’s my attempt at the 1:48 Accurate Miniatures Grumman F3F-1, and it’s built straight from the box. The only thing I added was the antenna wires. The kit is a real jewel – any flaws are mine alone. Accurate Miniatures was my favorite model company, and I really hate they went under. The kits they produced were – and still are – the best examples of their kind ever made. I finished it with kit decals to depict an F3F-1 from Fighting Four deployed aboard USS Ranger in 1937. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Montgomery Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 Very nice work! By chance I met the gent who owned and operated Accurate Miniatures. He was at the Telford Convention last November and I spent a little time listening to his stories about the company....and, of course, praising the work he had done with his offerings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
