The hapless P-40 pilot from “Persuit” never made it into the clouds on time. The AMT P-40 has been crippled by the 2 Hasegawa Ki 84s. Hope you like this follow-up pic, & thanks for letting me share it with you !
Way to go. Keep them coming.
How about turning the tables and have the P-40 wingman get those that shot his leader. [8D][:)][:D][:p][:p][:p]
Pix, what an absolutely brilliant idea!
I love it!
Both the idea and the execution.
The smoke looks fantastic.
Pix, I’m runnin’ outa adjectives for ya!
Gonna have to switch to Japanese soon just to keep it interesting!
Thanks, Sled & J-Hulk ! These are so much fun to make ! I’m glad ya like lookin’ at 'em !
Sled - You read my mind ! Now I have to make it inventive so you don’t see it the way you might expect it ! Makes it more of a challenge that way. I like it !
J-Hulk - No adjectives necessary. And if you start using Japanese, give a translation so I can return the favor to you on your MAGNIFICENT builds ! (even if they ARE targets . . . ) (I mean ARMOR !) O.K. J-Hulk. You can put the 88 down now. . . . J-Hulk? ? ?
Thanks again !
“HASSHA!!!” (Fire!!!)
DOOOOOM
Or even:
“UTE!!!” (Fire!!!)
DOOOOOOM
J-Hulk - thank goodness that your guns don’t have quite enough range to hit Massachusetts from Japan !
Sled - You have given me a GREAT idea ! I’m planning on carrying this out as a “series.” From both sides, from take-off to landing. I’ve never seen anything like that before (doesn’t mean someone else hasn’t done it yet), and it may be interesting to follow. I owe you one, Sled ! ! 1
Anyone else think this is a good idea ?
I think it’s a great idea.
Go for it Pix! If I ever get some more models done I’ll have to try your ideas for pictures. That ok? Great stuff!
Thanks, Claymore & 13b20 !
13b20 - Of course its O.K. ! Every person brings their own “touch” to a project. There is NO competition here. We build for FUN ! And if others enjoy it, or get ideas from it, it only ADDS to what we can do with this wonderful hobby. To quote you, GO FOR IT ! ! !
if he’s flying AMT he probably got whats coming to him.
Hey Pix,
Go for it my friend…!!! I feel it will be a very interesting series that will follow.
BTW you are having 2 much fun aren’t you??[:p][:p][:p][;)].
Lookin forward to the series my friend.
Flaps up, Mike
18co - the AMT P-40 kit isn’t too bad, IMHO. It is spartan in the cockpit & wheel wells & the decals are THICK, but the surface scribing takes a wash really well, and the fit was good. My only other P-40 kit was a Mauve, and that was about the same.
Butz - isn’t having FUN what its all about ? Got to keep it interesting. I don’t want it to become predictable !
Thanks for the replies ! ! !
More nice work Pix, and I like the idea of a series too. I like em all but the P-40 (who knows why) is a personal favorite.
Bob
Nice work. Looking forward to seeing the ‘series’…
Heck yeah, the “Series” sounds like a great idea!
Thanks, ardy, dj & J-Hulk !
A series it is, then ! ! !
Awesome pics that you do there Pix! [:D] You have a lot of talent, keep up the good work!
Jerry
Thanks, coldwar ! I think that I have more ideas than talent. I don’t yet know how to create the pictures that I make in my head ! But its a lot like modeling. With more experience, you get closer to what you imagine. Glad you enjoy the ones I’m able to do !
