        This is the 1/48 AMtech P-40E kit with a few small modifications. 
        These mainly involved reworking the tail to represent a K5 and adding 
        photoetched belts in the cockpit. 
         
        Painted with Gunze and Testor's colours. The South African markings are 
        from an Aeromaster decal sheet, received from one of the folks on 
        HyperScale for free! 
          
          
         
         
        This wasn't a serious build and it isn't quite finished. This was a 
        'build for fun' effort. Brett's photography skills are far better than 
        my modelling skill!
