Nice. Looks like the MkXIVe which took part in the Edmonton(?) and I think King's Cup air races.
 
Next one up a rather bright looking P-39

As said, nicely done model, but a failure on the finish. Looks like the final clear coat has 'orange peeled', as the effect is evident overall, including the decals.
 
I agree with Andy.
 
Now this japanese subject is the opposite....not enough gloss!

Come on now Wayne!It's got some gloss on the cowling ;) but should it have some gloss?My thought is that AC in combat would always be flat unless brand new and even then maybe semi.
 
Cowling doesn't look glossy to me. There are two white lines than appear like a shine but it's pretty flat. I like the model though.
