spook Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 Hi All Here my last built, the Hasegawa / eduard P-40N in LuluBelle markings: not unusal markings but really beautifuls ones I built it from the box, hope you likte it Anthony in NZ, Rocat, MikeC and 13 others 16
TimHepplestone Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 Lovely build and lovely job on the faded olive drab camo . I have the same kit in my stash waiting to be done. Was also going to Lulu belle just because the plane and pilots are part of such a great history . I have read that Eduard got one thing wrong in they the letters “ Lule Belle” were yellow and not white as per the Eduard decals. Can anyone confirm it this is true?
dennismcc Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 That is a very realistic finish, it looks just right to me Cheers Dennis
Dpgsbody55 Posted October 18, 2020 Posted October 18, 2020 Nice model. I like your painting too. Cheers, Michael

Alas you cannot conclude anything from that picture as it has been colorized.

Lothar Posted October 20, 2020 Posted October 20, 2020 I don't care about yellow or white, colorized or not, I just enjoy the pics of a fantastic model which looks perfect to me in all respects
