P-40 Soviet (Paper AircraftWerks)

A not very easy to build P-40, but with patience and perseverance, it can be done.

P-40 used in the Soviet Air Force in World War II, flown by Stepan Ridnyi. My paper scale model won second place in the internal contest at the Alamo Squadron club, in San Antonio, Texas. And I didn't give it much chances (it even won before General Gailer's P-51 Mustang, LOL)

I'm not familiar with Paper AircraftWerks. What type of issues did you have with the model. It looks really good to me

Here is a just-completed log of my trials & tribulations building the Flying Tigers version of this same model from Paper AircraftWerks. From his posts in my thread, and PMs we exchanged, Gerardo faced similar problems (although he's a more experienced builder than I am and didn't have as much trouble dealing with them). From the opposite perspective, there are numerous repaints of this model at ecardmodels full of build pictures, and a couple of posters in my thread indicate that they didn't have the sorts of problems when they built this.
