Have been modeling for 30 years and this is the first P-40 I have built. Not sure why, as I have always been a big fan since I saw “The Flying Tigers” as a kid. Really enjoyed building this kit, and it is one of Airfix’s better efforts. It is fi[...]

Hi There, Whilst working at my usual glacial pace on another build I decided on Monday to see how quickly I could complete a kit using enamels. This is the result. I have just spent the last two hours trying for the life of me to get the aerial[...]

This is a nice kit but my problems started when I decided to put the Aires cockpit in it. It was not that great of an improvement to the kit parts and it was too wide. I sealed the fuselage and inserted it as a unit up through the wing opening[...]

Terrific model, excellent build, and one I would recommend absolutely. I used Tamiya acrylics, which is something I have not done in over twenty years. I also used Star Fighter Decals, which I am pleased to report, worked flawlessly. Mark[...]
