P-40 is good Karl.
yeah but now need another subject as GA Jinx FR474 was actually a long tailed P-40 K or Kittyhawk III, kit is a short tail early "K" !

I did a short tailed K as Stocky Edward's HS-B of 260 Sqn.
Kinda hoping to do another 112 sqn bird for my collection.
Will look at options before deciding

We might have a contender FR295 GA G was a short tailed P-40 with enlarged fin fillet and i have decals that match if my research is good !

On the Spit pic, I see that even though it looks very scruffy, the "black panel lines" are limited to the slipstream of the exhaust and no streaks behind the guns. The other things that need some shading are the flaps and ailerons. That is going to be my next hurdle and since I can't move my arm much, I've been watching a LOT of youtube model vids.

The black panel lines that you are seeing in the exhaust area are shadows from the armour plate covering the fuel tank. This plate stood proud of the surrounding sheet metal but not much. It may indeed be accentuated by exhaust stains.
Smoke stains behind the guns are often exaggerated by modelers (me included) and I've been telling myself to tone it down on recent builds.
