1/32 Trumpeter P40B

Here is my finished Trumpeter 1/32 P40B which a friend gave to me as a birthday gift knowing that I absolutely hate these planes. I told him that I would build it, but only in a crash scene diorama. The kit went together quite well, but I wasn't much concerned seeing as I was going to damage it in any case. It was painted using Aeromaster enamels and weathering was done using Mig pigments. The figures were done by a good friend of mine who builds armour dioramas as I don't build figures.

The scene is from a photograph in a book entitled 'Fighter' by Werner Held.

Overall I'm very impressed with the way the kit turned out.
