Problem is, for a P-35A, the Wolfpack Designs version (and its antecedent Academy and Hobbycraft plastic) lack the fairing extending forward from the wing roots to incorporate the exhausts.  Special Hobby appear to have captured this detail nicely in 1/72, and from what I can see from their online images, Dora Wings appears to have got it right in 1/48 in their upcoming P-35, but TBC. 

Hobbycraft also got the  hatch into the luggage compartment wrong (it should be rectangular) and there are a number of other deficiencies that Wolfpack don't seem to have corrected. 

There's a good summary of the Hobbycraft incarnation in Werner Scheibling's build at http://www.hyperscale.com/features/2001/p35aws_1.htm 

I think I'll wait to see what Dora Wings comes up with.

Cheers

Doug

Yes
There are quite a few things that's wrong with the plastic from Hobbycraft/Academy and as such also Wolfpack.

I'm also waiting for the Dora Wngs releases of the P-35 family, and the P-43 as well.
