Hi all,
 
I started this object last month. This is my first time building P-40 and it's a 1/32 big one. I decided to bring some features to this nice but plain Hasegawa kit, so I use Eduard's big set for P-40E, and then the engine is from Trumpeter's 1/32 P-38L, which use the similar Allison V-1710L engine as P-40Es do.
 
I just finished the engine detail. Some progress here.
 
 

 
Cut the engine cowl of the original kit
 

 
 

 
cut the intake of radiators
 

 

 

 
 

 
Inlet, fill the gap
