  1. Hi everyone A more accurate title would be Curtiss Hawk 81-A-2 which is the "Side B" option of the Airfix boxing A05130. Flown by Flight Leader Robert Smith, 3rd Squadron, Kunming, China, 1942. I thought this was a very nice kit and I would make another (in fact I definitely will as I initially goofed up the shark's mouth decal, so I bought another kit which I will use in conjunction with an Xtradecal sheet featuring some interesting foreign operator schemes (Turkish, Syrian). Researching the colours was a challenge. There are lots of opinions about DuPont's interpretation of RAF camo. In the end I went with Airfix's suggestion of 119 for Matt Earth (approx DuPont 71-009) but Tamiya XF-13 for DuPont 71-013. I felt that Airfix's suggestion of 116 just seemed too dark. The model is pretty much OOB - I just added some photo-etched seatbelts and a gunsight. Desert dust effect courtesy of some weathering powders.

  2. This is my just complete nascar that i only started as a time filler and for something to get me painting again after a couple of months of doing nothing. I originally intended for this to take a week or so but total time has been more like 3 weeks For those who read through the wip i was not very complementary of the kit for fit and just the common sense of how it goes together and the decals were naff but i have to blow my own horn as i am very happy with how it has turned out I had to make my own windows for the car as either i lost the ones for the kit or they were not in there to start with, honestly for my first attempt at scratch making windows i am happy but i now know how to improve the method if I ever need to do it again So here is the car I had to give it a raced look to hide the poor areas of the decals In this next pic i have wiped away the muck from the drivers side to simulate what a pit member would do in a stop I am also really happy with how the wheels have turned out, i will be using the same effect on future builds now Thanks for looking and if you spot anything you think i could of done better let me know Shaun
