Whoah! A really beauty! I just did one of those too, so I know a good job when I see it! Voir et Savoir 32 - P-40B | Album by strobez (1:144) - I screwed up the rear part of the canopy… the glue just got sucked in and made a mess.
I love the cockpit details. On mine, i stuck a pilot and a motor for the prop, so no room for anything more, but I love the details you were able to add. Nice upgrade!

Thanks Greg. Yes, I found your build as I was uploading this. Its brilliant, and I was amazed by the motor; I didn't even consider it a possibility given the lack of space!! For such a small subject in 1:144 I was very impressed by the detail and fit of the kit, though when I put it beside the Airfix .. I have questions (like who is correct about the direction of prop rotation haha!)

Yeah, AFV Club makes some great 1/144 kits with amazing details. I've got a few more in the stash, just raring to go. Hard to build 1/72 kits right next to 1/144 kits… they get intimidated. Best to let them flourish on their own. 😉

Thanks Erik. This was literally a weekender. Nice thing about small subjects is that they don't need long term commitment😉
