I have built Phil Aldair's "Lulu Belle" some years ago out of the 1/48 Hasegawa Warhawk (the best kit of the P-40 you can get in that scale), so there's no need for me to step up in scale and build it again ....

There doesn't seem to be a good P-40 in 32 scale, so I wonder if this will fix any of those issues?

Hi Bill

Everything I've read about Hasegawa's P-40N has been overwhelmingly positive. This should be really tasty with Eduard's extras added.

All the best

Thanks, Rowan, there seem to be some aircraft that can't get it right. Glad to hear this iconic bird is not one of them.

Not one but two RNZAF birds???? Albeit the same Gloria Lyons but they were applied to two different airframes. Why Eduard? Why? Oh my poor wallet!!

I built the Hasegawa 1/32 P-40N back in 2011 for the P-40 Workhorse Campaign and don't recall any problems (other than those of my own making!!). It was a great kit to put together and I will probably hunt this one down to have a go with the Eduard extras.

Bob, you would remember that Campaign well???

Cheers, D

D, I do indeed just wished I could have finished (Maybe another P-40 campaign).

I would like to look at this kit to see if it really goes together good.
