P40 Warhawk Flying Tigers 1:32 by paper aircraftwerks

Well you will be picking this up in the middle but I just spent about 10 minutes trying to post over at its usual spot and got tired of trying.

I just got the wings and tail section fit on today. It all went together pretty well. The wing tips were new for me as they had internal formers that you wrap the paper around. If you leave just the right amount it goes really well. The glue softens the paper nicely and it tucks right down. It turned out better than I thought it would. If I do another one like this it will be quite good I think now that I understand it....

The pics!

That really looks great Chris!
I think you have done a nice job, it's a beautiful specimen!
I have this one also and just looking at yours makes me want to build it!
I already have a 1,000, next builds though so it will have to take a number!

Eagerly awaiting your updates!

Russell

I think that Nobi is right. Colors are a bit on the light side but it does not change my admiration of the plane.
P-40 has the look of the true fighter aircraft and you progressing with it really nicely.

OT
Chris, I don't believe we ever saw construction report of the Ki-115 from your avatar :D
