Possible MTO group build Revell P-40B 1/48

[B-17engineer]

I have this in the start to finish section because I am not sure that I will find proper decals for my P-40. If I can't, it'll be a normal build if I can a Mod can move it to the group build folders? Here are pictures of the kits and decals the white lettering is K - H - R . If anyone has P-40B decals 1/48 send me a PM please!

 

[B-17engineer]

If I can't find proper decals it may be a Me-109 I will do, if it's not the right variant, I will have to do a ..... do I dare say it.... SM.79

Hmmmm...Red X's again?....not seeing any pics....

 

[Wurger]

Now these should be seen.

Harrison , when you resizing pictures with the Irfanview , please, set JPG file format before you save a picture.

Beauty Wojtek! thanks...

Not sure if I have P40B decals will have a look...you should only need codes the British national insignia should suffice.

 

[Wurger]

I have told him the same. What is more the white letter "R" can be used when the right "leg" will be cut off. I cannot see the serial number but it can be adjust as well.If not this can be the only thing that Herrison needs.

 

[B-17engineer]

Where do I go to set that? Sorry about that guys !

2 question for anyone, What color whats the cockpit of the P-40B seats, instrument panel etc

Also, I have this thing called Nothhapton or Northhampton (Not sure) Putty, it's like a liquid form, is that OK for sealing the fuselage together.

Wojtek the serial number is AH881

Click the icon of a diskette on the tool bar of the Irfanview program or choose the save ( save as) from menu "File" and in the requester for saving you will find it at the bottom of the window.Click the marked with the red arrow square. I know there are Polish captions in the pic but it should look the same but with English ones on your screen.Scroll the list down set the JPG

 

[B-17engineer]

Ah, I see let me try.

 

[Wurger]

Yes , that's it. Now it is a JPG file. Great Harrison !!!!

 

[B-17engineer]

Thanks Wojtek 8) . I am curious would you know what the seat color in the P-40B was. I would like to make some progress today before noon, I am going to see a friend for a while but will be back around 5.

 

[Wurger]

Wait, processing......... zzyt zzyt zzyt...

 

[B-17engineer]

What's processing?

It says to paint the cockpit interior green? Does Olive Drab or something of that nature work as a substitute?

 

[Wurger]

Processing...it was my joke, sorry But it is connected to data base program when it looks for something or set datas correctly.

Yest the whole interior of P-40 cockpit was painted with interior green.But I have found the Curtiss factory used its own colour. However I think it was the Interior Green but applied on a primer and the preservative coat of Yellow Zinc Chromate or Green Zinc Chromate.

Here these colours by ModelMaster.

 

[B-17engineer]

Okay, so I need to buy that? Oh yes, AH881 is that okay for aircraft ID number?

 

[Wurger]

No, AH881 is not correct. But firstly you have to decide which P-40B you are going to build.

Concerning buying these clours ...it would be better if you could purchase them but if you are short of money....

Have you had silver , yellow and green paints yet?

 

[B-17engineer]

I do Wojtek, would these be alternates ?

 

[Wurger]

Their mixtures can be alternates of course.

 

[B-17engineer]

Okay I have them! Does the ID number mean I can't use this in the MTO build?

 

[Wurger]

No..it doesn't. Simply it has to be changed.
