Curtiss P40 - Assembly - Transformation - Painting - Weathering - Volume 2

After the first volume devoted to the Focke-Wulf Fw 190, the Planes and Models Collection continues with an often-underestimated plane, the Curtiss P-40. The reason is simple. In spite of its limitations, the Warhawk was a machine which took part in the whole conflict and on all the fronts, sporting some of the most highly-coloured insignia and nose-arts of WWII. What can be more motivating than to produce a model with such spectacular camouflages? The present work has no historical pretensions and offers simply the possibility of discovering a plane purely from a modellers' point of view. Each of the four assemblies is centred on one particular theme with the objective of presenting certain sleights of hand used by the old modelling veterans in the most dynamic and didactic manner. The models are a P-40B, a P-40E, a P-40F and P-40N, all 1/48th scale. 150 photographs
