What Cuajete said 😉 👀
Lots of info to be found online about the Brewster
The Finnish Airforce is a great subject for a modeler, with the Brewster, the 109, the Mig 21 and also the Bae Hawk.
And probably lots more non-typical aircraft

Hi all, thanks for the generous complements. I bought this kit because my partner has never built a model before, and building a pair together seemed like a good introduction (hers is in the winter scheme with the orange spinner). I've gone down a bit of a rabbit-hole since starting, learning about the Finnish aces who flew them, and the winter war in general.
