nmayhew 1,812 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Looks beautiful as always, but is that drop tank on back to front? Tolga ULGUR, daveculp, TenSeven and 1 other 4 Link to post Share on other sites
discus 780 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I have a doubt: it looks like the fuel tank is on the wrong direction Overwise, really nice built, congrats Tolga ULGUR 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Kagemusha 8,843 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Very impressive, sometimes they put the drop tanks on the wrong way round. Tolga ULGUR 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Tolga ULGUR 4,455 Posted January 14 Author Share Posted January 14 Thanks I was willing to built Joanne when I saw first the box art of the old Eduard s kit years ago. It was impossible to find its decals in 1/32. In the end I could get them as customized decals from customhobbydecals. You can see also wrong direction drop tank of Joanne on Eduard s box art and also old version of squadron signal p-40 book s front cover.

And the reversed drop tank is a nice touch. Tolga ULGUR and daveculp 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Patrick HMD 259 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 I'm thinking, and this is just me thinking, that the drop tank was purposely reversed to reduce aerodynamic drag. If so, not sure if it would have made that much difference. Tolga ULGUR 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Trak-Tor 2,061 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Another fantastic looking P-40. Congratulations! Juraj Tolga ULGUR 1 Link to post Share on other sites
