Very nicely done 👍

Sadek Khalidi
Thanx!
Its almoust done besides some small adjustment on dark grey patches. I let it dry some days...

Thanx Trez. Thing with canopy can be easy resolved by cutting canopy in 3 parts and replacing movable part with transparent mylar plate bent in two places. Luckilly its not bubble canopy so movable part can be easilly produced from rectangular piece.
I have one more Yak in stash so maybe this one will be with open canopy.

Great work so far!👍🏻

Thanx Trez!
I never finished it to 100% since some polishing and more painting is required: Mostly fixing too much transparency on white decals. So currently its "drying" on the shelf and waiting for last touches. Vacu canopy is finally on place in open position. I have spare vacu canopy for Spit Mk 22... Biggest drawback in this kit in uncorrect air intake under engine if you will build Mk 47.
This was a first issue so decals was pretty bad- too thick and wrong in register, and worse red stencils without white layer so red is completly tranparent...
Same kit from later issue have perfect cartograf decals... Otherwise nice kit with some lesser issues. If i get newer boxing i will gladly build it again ad Mk 46.

Sadek Khalidi
Exactly.. something more demanding sometimes .... but today after some hours of cutting and gringing my energy is depleted...

I can imagine... patience, rome wasn't built in one day 😉

I really like this build, great work mate! Special Hobby isn't easy to build...

Sadek Khalidi
Its very uneven kit: some great parts like resin engine and cabin mixed with not so well fitting plastic and grand inaccuracys like canopy... Still an intressant plane so it was worth it.
Decals was great btw.

Sounds like an older kit by Special Hobby. The newer ones must be better. I just have build one of them, an old mold P-40F.

Sadek Khalidi
Yes this one was from 2009... now they doing better kits...
