Another P40 1/4 scale completed. This new concept of mine worked really well. Lighter than the first one. Very happy with the results. This one came out to be around 7KG or 15lbs for the composite parts. Add a few for foam cores and wood parts...should be still around 15-17lbs for the kit. Quite light for a 112" wingspan plane.

While I am working on the 1/3 scale Corsair, I also have to make kits for the P40 and Mig3. I improved the rivet details on the P40 tail section, as well on the rest of the airplane.

P40 fuselage is out of the mold. Detailing is next. sanding flashing. I am happy the way the rivets turned out. I made the rivets bigger on purpose to compensate for sanding, priming and painting.

There will be a cover plate going on front of the wing root for a clean finish.
