Hi everyone !  :smiley:
Here is my last project FM1-Wildcat from HobbyBoss.
I'm not very happy with the result but is acceptable...seven months have passed since I finished the last model.
Hope you like it.

Now is this an ex French or an ex Greek machine?

Would certainly explain where the Luftwaffe could have got them from :)

experience has taught me to expect the worst.

IIRC, neither the Greek or French orders were actually delivered.  I'd still like to see a Wildcat in Vichy markings.

Nice build.  And thankfully they're NOT Marseille's!

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.
