Academy P-40 1/72

Post by Trainboy153 »

I bought this kit a few months ago just because it seemed like a fun little kit. Now that I have completed my monster of a B-17 and have bought an airbrush,
I am ready to tackle this build. :banana: :banana:

Those photos are a little small to see details mate, that's probably why no one has responded. If you can enlarge them next time, that would be great! :thumb1:

Looks like a nice kit from what I can make out and I love the P-40B, so will be watching closely! :)

Cheers :cheers2:

Nice kit. Look forward to seeing you bring it together. Beware the decals though. Very thick. You'll need a lot of Micro Sol. Good luck.
