Finally after two years of no finished model (last one was my T-34/85 back in Nov. 2007), here's my latest:

Bell P-39L Airacobra by Eduard in 1/48 scale. Build entirely out of the box fashion.

Old P-39Q made way back vs the newer P-39L. Both are from Eduard (the former reboxed by Accurate Miniatures)

Hi Ralph

Nice job! That's a very tasty Airacobra!

One thing I wonder though - and I hasten to add, this is totally without checking refs for the particular a/c's colour scheme - should the propeller tips be yellow? Still easy to do if so.

All the best

Rowan

Very nice build, clean, straightforward, and shows beautiful technique. My congratulations to you.

Matt

Thanks guys!

Rowan, while painting the prop tips yellow would add to the overall beauty of the aircraft (and I'd like to add it), but the instructions call for just black. I just followed what it said

Looks very nice

Cheers Nick

Nice build! I hope that you get more time to modelling in the future

Don't we all want that? Cheers mate
