Trumpeter 1/32 scale
P-40F Warhawk "El Tigre"

by Tolga Ulgur

Curtiss P-40F Warhawk "El Tigre"


Description

 

Yet another one from the pandemic isolation days, this is 1/32 Trumpeter P-40F Warhawk “El Tigre” (41-14245) tactical code “87” from 66th FS / 57th FG Sicily 1943.

 

 

Trumpeter’s top curve of the nose is off, it is not as it needs to be, it has a distinct hump. Thanks goodness the plastic is thick enough to sand it flatter. So I sanded this area a little. The new shape satisfied me.

I have used Eduard instrument panel and CMK seat in the cockpit.

 

 

Exhaust are Eduard resin parts for Hasegawa.

Wheels comes from Hasegawa s P-40 parts.

I have used Gunze Sangyo acrylics.
