Another Airfix 1:48 P-40B

[ohbejuan]

New release from Airfix. I have built an earlier version of this as a USA P-40B Warhawk. I think I will do the Turkish markings. I am doing this one straight out of the box. I had a frustrating time with an Eduard Kit recently and thought I would a "mojo" build.

Almost done. I am waiting for the spare replacement wheels to arrive. I used a mix of AK weathering pencils, Ammo Oil Brushers, Tamiya weathering powder, and Flory clay based wash. I have sealed it with AK Ultra Matte. Final photos when I install the wheels.
