  4. Great progress on your third kit, Axel @Plastikk
    The added brakelines do look really nice.
    Welcome to this great community.

  5. Very nice for a third kit, Axel. One thing you want to be sure if is that you get centerline seams completely closed up. You have a bit of a gap right ahead of the cockpit; dab in some glue and squeeze it tight and all will be well. From a mumble-mumble... very long time... doing these things, I can tell you it's the little things that always trip us up. Keep track of the small details and the big details will almost take care of themselves.

  6. Welcome aboard, Axel. @plastikk

    Taking into account this is only your third model, you must be a natural talent!

    As Tom @tcinla already mentioned it’s sometimes a challenging job to get the details right. Keeps us sharp though. 🧐

    But there a details and details.
    I usually restrict myself to building straight out of the box without running the risk of losing myself in adding aftermarket stuff, which can double the price of your model quite easily!
    Most important is to have fun in what you’re doing when spending time on this wonderful hobby …

  7. Looks like a great P-40 taking shape there, looks very nice. That’s the Airfix kit?

  8. Looks good from here, Axel, welcome to iModeler.

  9. Looking good. Anyone building P-40's is on the right track. Wilcommen.

  10. Looks great- nice addition of the brake lines! Looking forward to seeing the final product. Welcome!

  14. Welcome, Axel (@plastikk). Well done. I wish my third kit looked as good as this. The new Airfix kits are really fun to build. You will find modelers at all levels here, and you will find everyone is very supportive.

  16. G'day Axel (@plastikk),
    This is a great effort for a 3rd model.
    I've almost finished the same kit and I bet you have enjoyed it as much as I as I have.
