Good stuff Glenn. The shades do look a bit different, but allowing for the variations in lighting and exposure, I think they are mainly the same colour, or very close to each other.
Nice looking kit Wayne do not have one of these in my stash.Now I figure you are down to 399 unbuilt kits?? that would be 2X of my stash.You hint and I keep,
Found this P-40 cockpit tour on youtube and thought you might find it useful. It's a P-40N which has a different panel than the P-40M, but most of the rest of the cockpit is the same. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gl4BCNqecJ8
