This is my P-39Q Airacobra.


Built OOB this is the Eduard P-39Q Profipack with just a antena added.



Painted with Tamiya and Revell Aqua paints in the markings of Snooks 2nd.



The weathering was achived with a light oil wash and some pastels with a matt coat to finish.





Thanks for looking

Martin

That's a really nice aircraft Mr. Martin
How long did it take you to build & finish


Cheers Nick

Martin, a great build there. The P-39, one of the more maligned aircraft of the second world war. If they had only given it a supercharger huh? Ha ha. Again, good job enjoyed looking at it very much, a fine addition to your collection. Russell
