Hope you don't mind me suggesting this. When removing the panel wash, go against the direction of the panel, not with it. That way you'll leave a better result. Cool build

Nice build! Fan of the early USAAF markings. Recently built a couple of these 1/72 Airfix kits (Walsh & Taylor’s 7 Dec P-40B’s), a 1/72 Academy (79PS P-40B), and a 1/72 Monogram P-40N (Herbst “Tommy’s Dad). The Airfix kit scales very well for 1/72, within 5” (using my laser accurate tape measure of course 😂) of the real aircraft. The Monogram kit is closer to 1/67 scale overall but still looks good for a 1960 mold. The Academy kit needs a little wing work to achieve a satisfactory dihedral (built as is the wings have zero angle) but also scales well like the Airfix kit.
@ShuttleFactoryScaleModelsАй бұрын
Thank You I am glad to hear you loved the early USAAC markings, of this model. Also, I am glad to hear you have made this kit as well, in Dec 7th colors too. Along with both a classic Monogram P-40 kit and the academy kit as well. Speaking about the Academy P-40 kits, I made the 1/72 scale Academy P-40M/N kit last year. In the colors of a RNZAF Operational Training Unit P-40N , based in NZ circa 1944. And yes, if your keen I did make a build video on it too. Anyway, thanks for watching and good luck with all of, your ongoing projects too.

That is good news to hear that Humbrol/Airfix have fixed the paint problem. For a scale modeller like me with a healthy paint supply it was not too much of an issue. I cannot even imagine how frustrating for a beginner it would be to find dried paint in the starter set. Anyway, thank you Matt. I am glad you loved seeing my take on this kit. And hopefully the next starter set I tackle ,will not have dried paint in the box.

Hi everyone here is the link to the Supermarine Spitfire Mk Vc video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/anyreIttoqZsetk Unfortunately, all the include Humbrol paint pots in this starter set were bone dry. So instead, I used my stock pile of Vallejo Acrylic model paints as a replacement. Even with this minor setback, I was still able to make a nice model out of the kit. In the meantime, please make sure to check out the first part of the video following the link above. Until next time good luck with all your ongoing scale modelling projects.

@ShuttleFactoryScaleModels2 ай бұрын
Let me welcome into the wonderful world of scale modelling. It is always nice to hear from someone just getting involved with this hobby. When it comes to brush painting a scale models. I have found is always best to have a good collection of Flat Head and Round Head brushed, that have soft bristles. As for brush painting a model aircraft. Its always best to try and have the brush strokes running from nose to tail. And from the wing roots out to the wing tips. And apply thin layers of paint in at least 2-3 coats. With a good amount of drying time between each coat. If you want to attempt the mottled camouflage on your BF-109, as seen in the video. Just take your time with it. And above all have fun with this hobby. Hope this is of some help for you.
@peterkovasznai3534Ай бұрын
If you want a bit simpler paintjob for the first one, I can recommend the Academy BF-109 G-14. it's the plane of Erich Hartmann, and has an overall white paintjob, with the unique markings supplied as decals.

An interesting piece of history - From my father-in-law's logbook, Flight Sergeant, Howard Monk, RNZAF flew this aircraft NZ3136 on 22 March 1945, as part of the training unit mentioned and transitioning to F4Us. Howard recently passed away on March 24, 2024, at 100 years old. That would be 79 years and two days from flying this P-40.
