My building of Hasegawa´s 1/48 Kittyhawk Mk.I (P-40D)

Theme: "The Inner Hunt", from David Antony Clark´s album "Before Africa" (© to White Cloud); a magnificent album on African instrumental music (as you can hear) and an excellent piece of music which i LOVE so much. Besides, being African music, I think it suits perfectly with a desert-camouflaged fighter that fought over Lybia, in North Africa. Enjoy :)

nice panel details, how do you do it??

@MilitaryAircraft101 For the instrument panel, you´ve got two decal options; with or without black border (for the whole pannel) around the indicators) The cockpit walls are painted by hand. Though I love this desert camouflage, I´ve done other Hasegawa 1/48 Curtiss P-40s with better results in the cockpit working. As far as I know, Hasegawa has done at least six P-40s in 1/48th scale in the last few years. I only have one missing...

I'm impressed by that instrument panel and the cock-pit detail.. :)

Brilliant work, great model, well done.. :)

Thanks :) But to give it an even more realistic look, I have to learn to attach threads to simulate the radio cables. Not so easy, indeed... :/
