I just recently bought a P-40 E warhawk and the pictures and the color guide does not give sufficient color instructions. Anyways i was wondering if anyone has put one together or have some pictures of one.

Sniper,
Get a copy of Building the P-40 Warhawk from Kalmbach. For less that $20, you get a good set of P-40 photos, several articles on building various P-40 kits, and some useful color profiles.
Review at : https://armorama.kitmaker.net/modules.php?op=modload&name=Books&file=view_cat&cid=8
As for the P-40E, it probably should be a darker green interior. You're going to hear terms like "Curtiss Cockpit Green," dull dark green and bronze green tossed around. Get some Testor Model Master Interior Green and use some color photos to add some flat black to taste.
HTH
