ChrisS Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 Man oh man this looks great! I think I need to get one of these. How does the kit build up so far? What's the quality of fit and engineering? Very nice so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsarnoffca Posted November 12, 2005 Author Share Posted November 12, 2005 Thanks Chris. The Trumpeter P-40 is course great. The Cutting Edge Hawk conversion is excellent, There's no flash and the parts are very well made. The only problem is you have to be VERY careful cutting the P-40 for the conversion parts. It just takes lots of planning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bsarnoffca Posted November 26, 2005 Author Share Posted November 26, 2005 One more. I'm sure this is a well-researched restoration but I've never seen a photo of a French Hawk that had yellow propller tips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bsarnoffca Posted November 26, 2005 Author Share Posted November 26, 2005 Last one. The revised wheel well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsarnoffca Posted November 26, 2005 Author Share Posted November 26, 2005 Nope, one more. A little cowl detail. I used the cowl from the Craftworks kit as it's much thinner than the Cutting Edge part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
