Giannis KaltapanidisIs it a black primer that you oversprayed with white color for the shades? It looks glossy (the black...)
Interesting technique, very impressive result! I've never seen it done this way. Usually it's the other way around (black over grey primer)

Murad ÖZERGiannis hello, yes gunze 1500 black primer first, followed by flat white. gunze primer when thinned with mr. levelling thinner gets a nice satin finish, it was never as shiny as it was in the photos.

Murad ÖZERThe one on the boxart Patrick since the camo is a bit unusual with the half of the tail boom being in white i liked it better than the other alternative in overall OD.
25. June, 13:37
Patrick HagelsteinGotcha! One of my many side-projects (I have a really hard time focussing on one particular build.....) is the Academy P-40N in Australian markings with that same white tail.

Patrick HagelsteinThanks guys! I took this model to yesterday's model club meeting and it made it into the final for Model of the Month, but sadly lost to a Zoukei-Mura F-4D. Now my side projects are finished and I can finally clear my bench for a Tomcat!!!

Łukasz GlińskiNice, I built this kit couple of years ago, but it doesn't look this good. What happened to the canopy?
6. June, 20:20
Patrick HagelsteinThanks Jos, David and Łukasz!
The canopy proved to be 'unmaskable' ... I had a hard time discerning the canopy framing and wasn't able to get the masking tape on right. I tried painting some spare decal film and to apply that in strips, but it didn't work either. Since the cockpit wasn't that detailed to start with, I decided to cover it up with a tarp. In the desert scene it gives an impression of the harsh environment and I could try out putting a tarp over stuff.
Apart from the canopy (and the empty cockpit) I really like this kit! It fits well for an Easy Assembly kit and the panel lines and rivets are correct and very crisp.

Matt SmurfmmTrying to be closer in colors to AVG Tomahawks, but the kit is clearly modeled after a P-40D/E. The decals are for AVG P-40B/Cs though, so going with that. AVG Tomahawks had Dark Earth spinners with natural metal propellers from the photos Ive seen.
