Erik Lind Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 The kit is straight out of box. I used Barracuda Decals to get the 112 Sq markings with the sharkmouth. Kit is excellent, perfect fit, easy to build. I highly recommend it for any P-40 afficionado! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BradG Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 That looks really nice. I was tempted by this kit when it first came out, but was put off by the rivet detail, but it doesn't look too bad. For all the people wanting a new P-40 and the thousands that Trumpeter must have sold, I've yet to see one built in the flesh...or plastic, so to speak.

The river detail is actually quite subtle for being a Trumpeter, no deep trenches, just about Tamiya/Hasegawa style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D Bellis Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Its the Trumpeter 1/48 kit. Thanks! Trumpeter's P-40B kits (1/72, 1/48 and 1/32) are so hard to tell apart in pictures when they're as well built as yours... D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
