lewis25049 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Fresh off the bench is the Academy 1/72 P-40M/N. I used this kit as a nice easy OOB build as a break from some bigger projects. This boxing came with RAAF decals, so I've used them to model a 3 Squadron P-40N. Overall, a nice relaxing build - I still made plenty of errors, but the whole point was to just roll with the punches on this one and not worry about any minor issues. Feedback / critique welcome. Thanks for viewing. 33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remus389 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 The quality of this build is absolutely above average. 🙂👍 constructive critique : The vertical stabilizer I don't like, it doesn't fit with the military look of the rest of the plane.

GrzeM Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Though the new "N" version of the canopy spoils the whole cool look of the Kittyhawk/Warhawk, your model is great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valleyforge Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Think you have done the kit justice, it looks great. I think I have over weathered my first to kits; somehow. Yet people say they look OK. I think you seem to have just done the right amount; in my opinion. The under neath of this build looks spot on. Ill have to go back to re think my weathering technique. Super build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertie McBoatface Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Like @Valleyforge I think the weathering on the underneath is very good. I wonder if it needs dulling down just a tad though. It's very shiny. Maybe the topsides too? Other than that, well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmaks Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 I just built this kit as well. I believe it's the finest 1/72 P-40 N kit out there and yours looks awesome 👌 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
