New MKM Model 1/144 Curtiss P-36 Hawk and Curtiss H-75A

[Michal @ MKM]

Hello,

we are pleased to announce another model of a so far neglected type in 1/144th scale, the Curtiss Hawk Model 75. As in the case of our previous kits, this is a brand new tooling and this time resin moulds were utilised.

As far as we know, no kit of this elegant plane has been produced so far in plastic or resin in this scale.

We bring here some images of the master model, the first series shots and a test build.

 

 

 

 

The finished kit still lacks the canopy clear part, but otherwise the model is complete:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here are some pics depicting how the model master was made from scratch:

 

 

 

There will be three different kit boxes, with each kit containing 30 parts and four clear parts (for the cockpit canopy, scalloped rear windows and a landing light). Of course, a comprehensive instruction leaflet and a decal sheet are included in each kit, and there are four options for each box.

The kits will be available early in May.

More info about the forthcoming kits and camouflage options will be found on our web site at:

Thanks Michal - have ordered three of these! Thank you for making a kit of this in 144 - one of my favourites and so often neglected. 

 

Are there any plans in the works to produce the RAF-engines variant?

 

Thanks,

 

Angus
