So, I've reached a point in the cold weather where I am nearing paint on my AH-1Z Viper, so I need something to do. I decided it is time to build my Monogram P-40B and why not build my Hasegawa P-40E at the same time. A tandom build if you will.
The Monogram kit will get a full Legend's resin pit, some PE, a rescribe, Squadron canopy, Quickboost exhaust manifolds and Montex masks. I also plan to add the radiator, wheel bays, and cowl flaps open. That should be fun.
The Hasegawa kit will get mostly OOB treatment, with a cockpit PE set and Montex masks.
I will enjoy seeing the major design differences between the two kits and I don't have any P-40's on display and that is just wrong.
I am also aware that the Hasegawa may have wing root issues. I'm aware of it and will deal with it as needed.
'Till I update this again, MERRY X-MAS !!!
