Hi everyone,

Built pretty much out of the box, with just some seat belts, brake pipes and

aerial wires added.

Decals were from an old Cutting Edge set.

Fantastic. P-40N is my favourite variant and great scheme and finish. I see that the front undercarriage covers are missing?

Cheers Grahame, re: the front undercarriage covers, no they`re not, I can see them in pic`s 4 and 6, the photo`s came out a bit dark, is all. Thanks for looking and commenting though.

The P-40 may not have been one of the best fighters , but it was one of the best looking fighters ! Great job ! You did a wonderful job blending all those separate panels that Hasegawa used to make it a multi mark kit ! :pilot:
