    1/4 scale P40 Warhawk

    couple of pics I took the other day. A little more detailing to be done. Will start priming soon. Customer will do his own color scheme on it. I usually do not build complete airplanes. This is an exception as this will be only a static display plane for a business.

    1/4 scale P40 Warhawk

    I did an upgrade to the canopy. Gelcoated, carbon fiber reinforced and fiber glassed. Still light and strong. The cut out of the windows and trimming can be done by customer.

    Scale Corsair F4U 1/3 scale

    Yeah. I would like to keep it. I plan to build a 1/4 scale at some point all in composite. Don't know when to start. Way too many projects.

    Thank God it's over. She's done. Ready to be transported to her new home in California where customer will continue with glass work, covering, scale detailing, painting and anything else that he wants to do with it. Looking forward to see her flying.......

    Scale Corsair F4U 1/3 scale

    Well, I am building this for a customer. I think he will for sure use a radial and something close to 500cc. I think Valach has a 420cc.

    Scale Corsair F4U 1/3 scale

    No, it will be covered in fabric. The customer will continue working on the plane and make it as to scale. I think that part of the wing was metal and part fabric.

    Scale Corsair F4U 1/3 scale

    A bit more done. Outboard flaps installed. The aileron is not hinged yet and I might leave that to customer. Everything is only pre hinged for removal so customer can do his glassing and painting.

    1/4 scale P40 Warhawk

    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.
