Title: 1/48 P-40K; 23 white flown by Nicolay Kuznecov Post by: Apex1701 on June 06, 2011, 11:48:04 PM Here are some pictures of my finished P-40K.
I did use the resin tail from the AMTech kit grafted to the Hasegawa P-40E. I will keep the AMTech kit to build a E later. Colors mixes are from Tamiya: Sky Grey Du Pont 71-021: XF-83 Dark Earth Du Pont 71-009: 50% XF-59 + 50% XF-52 Dark Green Du Pont 71-013: 50% XF-13 + 25% XF-5 + 25% XF-21 (http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e136/Apex1701/P-40K/DSCF2559.jpg) (http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e136/Apex1701/P-40K/DSCF2557.jpg) (http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e136/Apex1701/P-40K/DSCF2554.jpg) (http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e136/Apex1701/P-40K/DSCF2553.jpg) (http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e136/Apex1701/P-40K/DSCF2555.jpg) (http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e136/Apex1701/P-40K/DSCF2556.jpg) Title: Re: 1/48 P-40K; 23 white flown by Nicolay Kuznecov Post by: learstang on June 07, 2011, 12:58:39 AM Nice work, Jean!

Thanks for sharing it with us,greetings. Martin Title: Re: 1/48 P-40K; 23 white flown by Nicolay Kuznecov Post by: John Thompson on June 08, 2011, 10:08:55 PM Nice work, Jean! It makes me think of a project I'd like to do some day, which is to convert a 1/72 Hasegawa P-40E to an aircraft having the Klimov M-105 engine. Your photos are also excellent!

look what Spokito did: (http://www.desavionsetdesmaquettes.com/spokimage/p401.JPG) more pics here:http://fighters.forumactif.com/t36750-p-40-kk-kittyhawk-klimov?highlight=P+-40+klimov (http://fighters.forumactif.com/t36750-p-40-kk-kittyhawk-klimov?highlight=P+-40+klimov) Xan Title: Re: 1/48 P-40K; 23 white flown by Nicolay Kuznecov Post by: learstang on June 09, 2011, 01:22:33 AM That's the same as one of the P-40's I'm working on - it's complete except for the decalling and the small parts such as the propellers, landing gear, etc. Mine came as a complete resin kit from LF, and it looks like it was based on the Hasegawa kit. Not a bad little kit, but a bit pricey.

thanks for your comments. ?the cockpit interior is from the box or an aftermarket product? Nope.
