P-40K finally done
KUROK replied to ScottsGT's topic in LSM 1/32 and Larger Aircraft Ready for Inspection
Great job for sure! Bravo! -
This is good news! Gary Kerr worked very hard to get paint mixes with the well known Model Master line of paint. I was wondering what I'd do now that MM is out of production.
-
Those look great together. Congrats on a gorgeous finish!

Another P-40E to P-40K build!
KUROK replied to ScottsGT's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Looking good! And I can sympathize on doing any sharkmouth decals. I have told myself if I ever do another sharkmouth that I'll be better off painting/masking than trying to get a decal on. Good luck and enjoy and well-earned Scotch. -
Tamiya F4U-1D completed
KUROK replied to JohnB's topic in LSM 1/32 and Larger Aircraft Ready for Inspection
An awesome Corsair, for sure! Love that smooth GSB. -
Following along. I have a couple of these Tamiya motorcycle kits too. I've been wanting to take the plunge.

I tried MM acryl late in the game...before they quit making it. I found that cutting it 50/50 with Future gave very good results. Also after about two days of curing time it was so hard I could not even scratch with my fingernail...probably due to the Future.

Even though that GSB gave you masking trouble, it sure is smooth. What is your brand on that?

Hi All, Here are some iPhone pictures I took at the show in Marietta, GA, yesterday. No rhyme or reason...just pics of things that caught my eye. p.s. I always say I won't spend any money...but as usual I bought kits (P2V-7 Neptune, F-82 twin mustang, bf109G-10) Enjoy: Vince's pics from 2025 show - click photo for closer look

I'm always game for another Warhawk from JohnB. BTW, I need a resin K tail for a project I'm planning to do one day. I thought I would do it myself with scrap plastic and putty...but who am I kidding? This resin tail will just save time and hassle.

Great job on this!

Eduard Bf-109E RFI
KUROK replied to JohnB's topic in LSM 1/32 and Larger Aircraft Ready for Inspection
Great job and very colorful subject. Did you to the mottling freehand with the airbrush? I just don't trust my skills yet on that. -
Cool looking paint scheme choice. Looking forward to your RFI....tomorrow! LOL

I love the glossy overall Oxford Blue RAAF Sea Fury with the white spinner. https://images.app.goo.gl/utcqeoTHxYNYZH8z9 -
Hasegawa 1/32 P-40E Darwin 1942
KUROK replied to JohnB's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
You did it right. Years ago, I went to Middlesboro, Kentucky, to see the P-38 that was pulled out of the glacier...."Glacier Girl". I saw the original US ARMY on the wing. It looked like a very very dark blue to my eye. -
Hasegawa 1/32 P-40E Darwin 1942
KUROK replied to JohnB's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
It does look better with a thicker prop, that's for sure. Hasegawa never corrected that narrow prop and it really looks wrong on the later marks...like the N. -
Hasegawa 1/32 P-40E Darwin 1942
KUROK replied to JohnB's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Your prop mods look very nice. Those early war E models did come with a narrow chord prop. So if you wanted to stay with the original and save your resin ones for another warhawk...you could. -
Revell Bf-109G RFI
KUROK replied to JohnB's topic in LSM 1/32 and Larger Aircraft Ready for Inspection
Great job and Testors MM looks great. Wish they were still in production. -
Hasegawa 1/32 P-40E Darwin 1942
KUROK replied to JohnB's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
I read Morehead's book some years ago. It was good! He did think the P-40 was a dog, though. -
Hasegawa 1/48 NMF P-40N done RFI
KUROK replied to JohnB's topic in LSM 1/48 Aircraft Ready for Inspection
Great job, JohnB. Love those NMF P-40s! -
He must've done it so you could offset the rudder for a natural look?

1/32 Advanced Training Unit P-40N
KUROK replied to KUROK's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Long delay due to lots of other things going on with work/family. Can I get my mojo back? Well, here are the wonderful Airscale heavy paper seat belts for your perusal: -
Tamiya 1/32 Mk IX Spitfire Polish Fighting Team
KUROK replied to JohnB's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Great start! I built the Eduard 1/48 mk IX and it was an absolute joy. So I have really coveted the Tamiya mk IX (and now the Airfix 1/24 mk IX). I will watch your build with interest. -
Interesting conversion. These are different and fun to see!
