Stef (#6) Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Hello all, Being a slow builder, I don't post very often here, but here is my last made kit, the Hasegawa 1/32 P-40K. Basically a very nice kit, the only additions here were etched metal harness and True Detail wheels, because, being a brick I managed to loose one of the sprue holding the wheels Paints are Gunze acrylics, weathering with pigments and Mig oil stains wash. There are still a few bits missing like brake fluid lines and rear view mirror, but this will be added tonight. snake head still need a bit of touching too, as it is bit too clean in comparison wht the surrounding area. Please, feel free to comment and criticize, that's the way toward improvement .... Hope you'll like it, Best Stef (#6) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

toniosky Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 (edited) LO-VE-LY ! I love ur painting and weathering, just like the real thing I guess. Since this is the Critique Corner I would like to point out that the pipe #3 is a bit out of axis, is this normal ? Edited June 16, 2010 by toniosky Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stef (#6) Posted June 16, 2010 Author Share Posted June 16, 2010 Hello gents, First thanks to all for the kind words ... @ Toniosky, nope that's no normal state for pipe #3 :) Little creeper must have moved while the glue was curing. Will try to fix it. Thanks for pointing it. Best Stef (#6) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mungo1974 Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Excellent job!! Those Hasegawa kits are awesome,but you still need talent to pull off a weathered bird....you have that talent! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimmy07 Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 wow such and incedibly weathered P-40! it really does look real :huh: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stef (#6) Posted July 12, 2010 Author Share Posted July 12, 2010 Hello, Thank you all, guys, glad you like the Curtiss ... And yes, the snake head is the kit decals. It was set in place using Daco Extra strong setting solution, but it was quite troubless; The right fuselage roundel made more fuss and I had to scrap it and redo it using eduard masks.
