    thanks, glad to be back.
    and Lewis, it hasn't been a full 7 days yet but yea.
    I have become quite fast at building these things!
    the wings, etc. are extruded or booleaned and NOT just placed through the model.
    the vc is going to take some time like always.

    well a 3 day weekend helped!
    the vc is gonna be tough.
    I have a few pics and I'm really going to have to use IL-2 for a better idea of what it looks like.
    maybe it won't be as bad as I expect it to be.

    Looking great already!

    Whatever else, don't take the IL-2 (or MAW - they're the same) skins layout - they are badly distended. If I remember, the wing span needed to be increased by some 12% compared to chord, which made it difficult to paint. Just thinking aloud...

    This looks awesome Jon, Glad to see your back and as speedy at building as ever.

    Dave

    P.S I have a book on the P40s that you may find handy, already have it on my hard drive if you want me to e-mail it to you. Looks to have everything you would need in it mate. Either way let me know mate.

    thanks everyone!
    Clive, will see what I can do with the model to make other variants when I'm finished.
    Dave,
    I'm still stuck with dial up so emailing pix can be a pain but cockpit shots are needed!
    I hate dial up!!
