Bronco 1/48 P40C


Recommended Posts

G'Day All

Latest one of the bench is the Bronco 1/48 H-81. Not one of my better jobs. This one took longer than a 48 scale single engine fighter should. I think because I ended up adding a true Details resin cockpit to correct the kits undersized one. The only gaps were the wing roots. Apart from that it assembled OK. the kit comes with an engine, but I could not display it as I wanted to, as the firewall is forward of where it should be. Apart from that I also added a Ultracast seat, and modified the awful representations of fabric control surfaces Bronco give you to better represent the real things. Bronco has moulded pronounced troughs between the ribs so I smoothed milliput over them.

With the forthcoming Airfix kit, I reckon this one will not be much of a seller

Not as bad as I expected Bruce, noting your distinct lack of ability :D ...

 

I actually like the presentation on the flag and the paintwork is really quite good. Looking forward to seeing it in a few weeks so I can really give it the critique you deserve :D:D
