I am interested in
collecting and building a P-40B Tomahawk model kit in every scale, I have a
plan to built all the scale Tomahawk in number 68 of AVG flying Tiger,
here I present my recently built Academy 1/72 Tomahawk, please enjoy. No after market products
were used, I just added some handmade seatbelts and gunsight. Some
panel lines are missing and wrong (especially in top of the main wing), to be
corrected as reference drawing.

A problem is
finding on the fix of the rear part canopy, almost 0.5mm thickness of
transparent part is bulged out of the body, I glued the canopy to
body and rub it to suit the body sharp, then used sand paper and
Tamiya compound to make the canopy glossy. The shark-mouth decal does
not including the blue colour area, I had to paint it with enamel paint
after I applied the decal.
Enjoy the photos.
