Congradulations Lampie!
You are going to have to slow waaaaaay down or start building 1/48 scale. I can't keep up with you.
My P-40 is sitting in the same place and at the same stage it has been for 5 days now.
Anyway.....another fine job!

Thanks Hermon
It certainly was a fun build and a great feeling when I got the decals on and it all came together.
Only reason Im building quick is that Im not working at the moment.Its my quiet time right now,but when I am working Im away from home for weeks,sometimes months on end and I wont be building a thing
oh,,and I really wanted to do a campaign before I head off back on the road

Looking good Nigel, I've checked out your pics in the Campaign forum, very nice. You have certainly nailed the antenna wire thing and your camo looks good. The only thing I could suggest, for later projects, is to remove the mould seams on the undercarriage legs.
You are definately gonna have to slow down, you've finished and I haven't even opened the box yet

Hi Nigel
Nice looking P-40!
I'm with Mal on this one! I've opened the box for my one, but that's about all! LOL!
All the best

Looking good there Nigel. Glad you got the wiring right, as i know what it feels like to search for hours and still come up with nothing :-). Well done on an excellent build, you have got the Blue-tac method down to a tee now.
Definitely with the others about you having to slow down, you have built 2 kits in the time its taken me to get anything out of a box ( and i thought i was fast ) :-) .
