Curtiss P-40E Warhawk, 11th FG, Aleutian islands

[Stéphane]

Hello guys,

 

My last build the good 1/48 Curtiss P-40E from Hasegawa. A nice and easy kit, although I had an issue witht the rear cockpit glazing, I used the wrong cement and it leaked and reacted with the paint 

under it.

Painted Gunze acrylics, decals from Aeromaster and the old Otaki kit.

The whole photo article of the build can be seen here : phot article

 

Hope you'll like her,

It is nice to see a P-40 from a theater of WW2 operations that is sometimes forgotten. I like the weathering and the exhaust stains you applied that give a very realistic look to your Warhawk. I can real imagine seeing this aircraft deployed at an airfield in Alaska.

Thanks a lot, glad you like her

 

I alway liked the Aleutian theater, lots of different aircrafts and weathering possibilities, from clean as whistle to mud box !
