Dang!! Great build! I love the air scoop on top, gotta love those Allison engines :D. Did you shape a block of styrofoam for that part? It looks really good, along with the air scoop on the chin!

Cheers,
Sam
 
Thank you,
The scoop one the to is 3 pieces of foam boar and some light weight spackle. And the exhaust is molded out of 1/2 blue foam then dipped in water based poly then painted.

Really nice! Have you tried the regular size too? I want to build the mini but details seem too tedious to build.

@Jayrod0821@gmail Incredible detail! The canopy was especially impressive to me.

@MiniacRC I'm actually planning on starting a build using your P-40 plans this week! The new skins for it by Rasterize won me over. This will be my first warbird.
 
Hey dis you by any chance make resized workable plans? Or just adjusted all the folds manually after you printed to 180%?
Sorry for the late reply. I just did everything manually. My computer is to week to tweek.lol
I just go at it with a ruler and pen. It doesn't take that long and is well worth the extra work.
