Better late than never but Happy New Year to you Charles and well don with that hand painting, it's come out just dandy.

Just finished "tacking" the canopy on with super-glue. Just a little dab at the top rear and the bottom front. Will let this dry overnight, then attach the rest of the canopy tomorrow. I can't see me trying to glue the whole thing on at one time...... ugh... such a mess.

Also found my bottle of "Future" (It's been MIA for a year or more). After the decals are on, I'll give it a coat of the Future. Pic's tomorrow...

Thanks for all the kind words, Lads...

Charles........... I'm going to post the decals that came with the first printing, then you can make the choice of using them or waiting till the reprints are done. I hate holding up "finishing" your bird.....

Put all the decals on the Russian P-40, today. One on the underside of the wings lifted off already, so I put it back on, the used the Future to hold them down. Tomorrow I hope to outline the control surfaces and another coat of Future.
