Curtiss P-40 N 5 CU – 49th FG. – 7 th FS. – Model MAUVE 1/48

Hi all, Here is a model that I finished about 20 years ago. It is the P-40 N from Mauve at 1/48. It did not please me much anymore because I found it sad on its base so I decided to redo this base. At the same time I made some additions of [...]

P-40N flown by Lt. Jack A. Fenimaore, 7th FS, 49th FG

I have no further information on Lt. Fenimore but he must have been a good guy because of the name and painting he put on his aircraft. Again,the kit is from Mauve and I found it to be very good. OOB it is good but if one wanted to go hog [...]
