I'm working on the P-40B,it's coming along nicely. As you can see I worked on the cockpit,added the wings and stabilizers. I haven't used any putty and it looks like I won't have to. Thanks for looking 😄

I highly reccomend this kit,so far the P-40 is nice,the Zero looks great but we'll see how it is when I start that one

I hope your Diorama is not directed by Michael Bay. 😉
Looks good, I heard that the Zero has some problems with the fuselage, because it's not straight.

Haha 🙂 that movie wasn't that bad,very inaccurate though...the zero seems to be fine we'll see though

A friend of mine built the zero and he said it was a great little kit. The legs are very brittle though and prone to snapping

Haha 🙂 I don't know how you armor guys do it,tank kits look very challenging and painting them by brush looks hard maybe I'll eventually get one 😄
26 December 2013, 16:18
![](/profiles/img/14321-181-s.png)
Hahaha they aint that hard really but they arent as easy tobuild as 1/72? Aircraft 😉 and id recomend getting 1/72 scale tank to start witn 😉;)😛
And the yellow green is way to yellow (just sayin;))

Hahahha im going tommorrow
And if you want a model tank
Gofor the dragon 1/72 scale tanks😄 because they are about 2 dollars or lower😄😄
And it still leaves a lot of money for aircraft 😉;);)😛

I think you mean the airfix,at my hobby shop they are 6 dollars for the 1/76 ones
26 December 2013, 16:35
![](/profiles/img/14321-181-s.png)
Damn my stupid letrer keys 😉
I meant 20 dolars for the dragon model tank kits such as this one

2 dollars is about a pound isn't it? God we get ripped off in Britain, a 1/72 dragon tank is about ten pounds!
26 December 2013, 16:41

You are improving, you should take more time when you take your pictures.
More light and more patience should help. 🙂

I almost finished the P-40 and I'm starting the Zero,once I finish both,I'll decal them at the same time. Pics will be up soon
26 December 2013, 23:30
![](/profiles/img/13701-543-s.jpg)
The pilot was to big for the Zeros cockpit,so I cut his legs off so he could fit
26 December 2013, 23:58
![](/profiles/img/14321-181-s.png)
Good story haha
It fits the picture necause there is an american P-40 on his ass lol

So i take it you guys are in the states, is Airfix hard to get hold of? Over here its everywhere! Great build btw
27 December 2013, 08:51
![](/profiles/img/14321-181-s.png)
Yup we are in tge states lol and airfix is really common here wear I am 🙂

I love Airfix, cheap and they have good quality now.
I also like the old kits because I love to sand and to putty.

@ Adam I'm also in the states,airfix is very common. At my local hobby shop,they have so many airfix kits they have a whole section of the shop called the "Wall of Airfix" and they're cheap to.
27 December 2013, 14:10
![](/profiles/img/14321-181-s.png)
They are like 10 dollars for the 1/72c basic kits and the starter sets are 12 dollars
27 December 2013, 14:16
![](/profiles/img/13701-543-s.jpg)
The guy at my hobby shop said the 1/72 Lancaster is a starter set,I don't think it is even though it comes with glue and paint
27 December 2013, 14:17
![](/profiles/img/13701-543-s.jpg)
2 new pics. I painted the engine of the Zero jet black,once it's dry I'll dry brush it with a steel color.

I think it would bebetter if you use a very dark metal collour, pure black is too dark in my opinion.
27 December 2013, 14:55
![](/profiles/img/14092-192-s.jpg)
It's good to see airfix flying the flag over there. I'm surprised it's a big brand, we always get the impression you just sit around making horrors out of Revell kits in the states!
28 December 2013, 11:35
![](/profiles/img/14321-181-s.png)
Lol I dont even build revell kits hahaha and airfix is pretty darn cool

Is there even a big brand comming from the US? Revell Germany claimed a few years ago that they had 85% of the German market, which seems true if you have a look in our toy shops and department stores... and my stash 😉 .
Although buying one of their aircraft kits (when you don't know what's inside) is always a lottery 🙂
But what they've done in the last years in 1:35 was great... the offered kits quite new kits, with "better" decals and even cheaper than the originals

Fabian - Revell is the closest big brand US modeling company that I know of and if I am wrong I am sure I will be corrected. In fact Hobbico bought Revell Germany and reunited the Revell brand a little over a year ago. Here is a link for more info

Brandon - looking good 🙂

Thanks for the info... i knew hobbico bought revell Germany, but not the "other" revell ... but as we have our own revell i have never really noticed one of their products ...
