jester292 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I have the Eduard 1:48 P-40M which is the Mauve kit. Can I build the N from this boxing? It has the N canopy and cut down rear deck piece. Would just need decals unless I need to do something else to the fuselage/armament. Thanks for any tips. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
