Monogram 1/48 P-40B I/W PICS

I added some detail to the gear wells and flapwells

I added some details and proper instrument panel to the cockpit.

Here it is painted and glossed. Ready for decals for a Tomohawk Mk I of No, 403 Sqdn. RCAF



When in doubt just build it. Mark

Lookin good. Nice jobe on the scratch built details. The black and white on the underside was for ID purposes. Is that correct?

Thanks for sharing.

VERY NICE WORK! I want to build mine as an RAF bird shot down in the North African desert (based on a WWII aviation art painting I saw), but the interior definitely needs some work before I can open the cockpit and drop the flaps!  Excellent job!  Hope mine turns out half that good!

Thanks guys I really like how this one is turning out. Yes the black left wing was for ID so they wouldn't be sot down by friendly fire.

Excellent looking work so far!  That is a kit I would like to re-visit someday.  Looking forward to seeing more pics of your progress. Approve [^]
