    Lis you've got good taste. I've got to finish up the P-40N and like you the weather has turned south. With snow on its way. Weather delay in the photo dept. I also have to finish a Eduard Z-37A Čmelák 1/72. With the next project . . . I'm leaning towards the Arma P-51 B/C a little show stopper in the box. The details are as good as some 1/48 scale kits .

    So mabye in February we togeather build Arma Mustang? Yes. details are so rich as in 48th scale! I have an idea to do an out-of-the-box construction together and see how much the set will give us straight from the box. Everyone would choose the painting they like. It would be wonderful if other people would join in too. It would also be instructive for anyone new to i-modellers and would like to build a Mustanaga with an Arma hobby.

    Count me in. February would be a good time. This is a jewel of a kit. The sprues attachment points for the wings and things needs TLC. Choosing which version to paint will be the hard . . . half the fun.

    Very interesting vid!

    I was interested in the fact that a P-40 with 33 PS shot down practically one zero fighter (if of course we consider this story to be credible)
