Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
Hi all
This is my latest project, a P-40E from FAB during WWII. This plane was used in patrol along the Atlantic in Natal (Parnamirim Airfield), Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil.
This plane was part of the first lot of 6 P-40E received as part [...]
The Fleet Air Arm suffered in the early years of the war for the lack of a carrier‑based fighter that had performance sufficient to face the land‑based Axis air forces on any basis of equality. This was nowhere more apparent than in [...]

Additions:
Gas Patch turnbuckles/brass tube ends.
EZ Line rigging
Masking tape [...]
