FROG, 1/72 P-40B

Recommended Posts

I was trying to find a way to kill some time before the nationals as I didn't want to start a big project and then leave it for a week or so, so I dug around and came up with this. It's a old, bagged kit that I got as part of a job lot of kits I bought. The decals were unusable, so I had to find some alternative a/c to build. I didn't want to do the usual shark mouth deal nor the three color camo job, so I looked around and found this, a Russian P-40B painted in a not usually seen way. I did it OOTB as I didn't want to make more of it than it is, but did replace the guns and added the vane antenna. The markings were scrabbled together from my spares. It's obviously no contest winner, but it was a fun little diversion from a bunch of scratch building, detailing or wrestling with PE parts.
