Hi TH-cam,
In this video I am building Trumpters Curtiss P-40M Warhawk / Kittyhawk III in 1/32 scale. I finish the model as aircraft GLO FR817 Lady Godiva of SAAF 55Sqn.
In the video I use a mix of Mr Hobby, Tamiya, AK Interactive, Abteilung 502, Ammo by Mig, Vallejo and Microscale Industries products. I use AK Real Color and Mr Hobby paints to paint the main surfaces of the model and most of the weathering is done using my favorite Abteilung 502 oils.
All products used I paid for myself and there is no paid promotion in the video.
Please keep comments pleasant, constructive or helpful criticism is fine, but anything rude or abusive will be deleted. This is not my day-job, I model and make these videos for enjoyment and I am far from being a professional modeller.

Thank you for watching. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Your great at modeling I'm 85 years old and restarting again. Also, I have Prostrate cancer. But I'm not let that stop me.
Don't misunderstand me I'm not feeling sorry for myself I've lived a long time and I'm still going along for a while yet!
Like you're modeling very much inspirational get the juices flowing love watching God bless your master model in my opinion
Bro what, are you even alive still
3:51 I love how you Brits across the pond say “Al-U-Minium”. You guys make anything sound a bit more classy! 👌 🫖 🇬🇧
Another great pronunciation is “schedule”. Shed-dule, or something like that. We are used to hearing sked-ule.
@@asdf9890 Yes, quite. Quite so, old boy.
The fact that the rondels turned out less than perfect actually made this build truly more realistic. The guys would hand paint them anyways so this method using the circuit and the masking looks so much more authentic.
Glad to see some one actually do the props from a sandy, desert theatre correctly. The spinning props are basically sand blasted along the leading edge! 3 thumbs up!!
I don’t really think the desert is as sandy and dusty as people make it out to be.
I think you should look at some wartime photos... Instead of what your perception of something maybe
You came up in my feed a week or two ago and I quickly subbed, you've got great content, skills and present information well. Plus the length of your videos is about perfect for me. Keep up the great work!
Hi Steven, thank you for the sub. Im glad the video length is good for you. Its always a difficult one, it could go on forever!
The cockpit needs serious correction. As Brett Green said "The cockpit is really poor. I find it astonishing that Trumpeter has once again repeated their error of a flat cockpit floor, while the real floor was the curved top profile of the upper wing. The flat floor compounds errors, resulting in sidewalls, the pilot’s seat and the rear bulkhead all noticeably lacking in height.".
I am still admiring your airbrushing techniques, add to that the detailing and weathering. Excellent work!
Thank you.
Amazing job, excellent focus on details and lots of tips throughout. This is in my stash so I've picked up quite a few ideas from this build which I will certainly incorporate into mine, so thanks for that.
Thank you Robbo. Thanks for watching. Good luck with the build!

She a looker that one, would definitely get centre stage on my shelf. Done an excellent job. Thanks for sharing
Just as your previous builds, the result is phenomenal ! Probably one of the best p40 builds I've seen. Keep up the great work, cheers👍
This is the finest model video I have ever seen. I am a many blue-ribbon modeler in trains. Thank you so much for this oasis from a crazy world.
Awesome build! I love watching videos like this, so full of great ideas, hints and tips! Great job.
Wow! After 47 years I thought I might try and do a model. Having seen this incredible amount of work I think I will just subscribe, watch and enjoy. Amazing, truly amazing. 🇦🇺👍🍺🍺
Another great build, these finished kits look like you could hop in them and fly them away. Excellent work as always! Subscribed!
Thank you!
One of the most iconic warbirds of the Desert War period in W.W. 2. All your references have paid very heavy dividend's in making this Curtis War Hawk really shine as it obviously does. Thanks for sharing.
I like the simple way you explain your procedures and decisions. The camera work is excellent, some of the best on these modelling channels. Keep it up! Thank you from Malta.
Thank you so much for giving the SAAF a mention with this one. Great build.
Absolutely astounding build and amazing detail. You really did the P-40 some justice here 👍
Excellent build, love your choice of colors in the camo scheme! Thanks for posting!
Thanks you, thanks for watching.
What a build (and builder!) I specially appreciate how thoughtful you are about describing your skills. Brilliant.
Thanks you, thanks for watching.
Your painting scheme is absolutely fantastic! Thanks for sharing, cheers!
Thank you.
Excellent build! I have always been fond of the P-40 even though it always seemed to be under appreciated.
Great build and love your explanations particularly of the weathering. Looking forward to the next one 😀
Thanks you, thanks for watching.
This is an awesome build of the Warhawk! Great job on the weathering, I love it! 👏👏👏
Thank you Roland. Thanks for watching
Just superb. Flawless. Complete realism. Thanks so much!
Thank you. Thanks for watching.
Absolutely fabulous job on this model, truly inspirational for us ordinary guys.
I am glad to have found your channel. I love the P40 and your build is an incredible replica, excellent work!
I learned a lot from watching, and thank you for taking time to list the products you are using. Cheers.
Just found you channel, great production and excellent work! Got a wild hair one day about 6 months ago reminiscing about my models I built as a kid. After a 40 year break, I’ve jumped back in pretty hardcore! On my 4th build, and first multi engine, a 1/72 B17.
The paint job is flawless. It really looks like it was painted metal and not plastic. Unbelieveable.
That’s some fine work on that hawk. For future, consider using micro kristal clear for window pieces. Goes on like white glue, dries clear, won’t fog the windows. Good for adding glass to the instrument panel gauges, too.
Your level of attention to detail is incredible to me. Great work!
Great watching your videos///and educational. I appreciate it all especially your on screen notes and explanations.
Amazing detailing and fabulous weathering great build skills and a brilliant model
Keep the great models coming 👏👏👏
Thank you Martin!
hands down, the very best Desert Air Force paint job i've seen ...nicely done.
Thank you Mark.
As to the Gun Barrels you opened, what is shown is an outer barrel shroud for the M-3, .50-Caliber machine-gun. What I do is open the hole as you did, paint the shroud gun-metal gray then insert a silver tube to emulate the guns barrel which were chromed.
Hi, good call! I will look at doing that next time round! Many thanks. Andy.
@@ScaleModelShed cool beans, great job on the model.
What a nice job. The detailing is awesome. This is the 3rd videos I've watched of yours...again, great job! Thank you for posting and waiting on your next build! Going to watch your other past videos. I've enjoyed them.
Thank you Cory, Thanks for watching.
Really great build. I really like your weathering techniques. 👏. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks you, thanks for watching.
awesome build mate!
Hi Scale Hanger 182. Thank you and thanks for watching.
Мене більше вражає як точно підібрані кольори,супер майстер з великої літери ,дуже приємно дивитись на зборку моделі 1-32.🥇
That was a superb build, and the weathering was perfect, welldone and nothing like a large scale kit to work on.
Thank you
Beautiful work! Thanks for sharing!
Absolutely fantastic build. Can’t wait for what’s next
Thank you.
Wow, simply incredible work.
Great to catch up with you today, thanks for the advice on how to do exhaust pipes on piston engines, the video is a wonderful reference.
The detail is incredible. I'm just getting back into modeling and trying to learn, your techniques offer a lot of insight.
What a beauty!!! Excellent work!!! I can't wait for what you build next!!!!
Thank you.
I absolutely adore the P-40. I know it wasn't the "best" by any stretch of the imagination, but it has that iconic look of a true fighter. All iterations of her, and you made an absolute banger of a replica. Kudos, this earned a sub from me. at this time of 01SEP2023, I'm finishing my Revell 1:48 of a P-40B Tigershark in the "Flying Tigers" scheme. Scale modelling is one of those arts that seems to be in the woodwork, but once you find those who do it, it's hard to keep your jaw off the floor, and everyone else's work only gives inspiration. And we seem to all be encouraging to the ones dabbling in starting their own journey!
I appreciate you sharing your process and attention to detail
Incredible skill, weathering is a masterpiece
The cockpit is amazing excellent job.
Great vid!! The P40 is often viewed as a pre-war obsolete design and was outclassed by later pursuit designs. This was hardly the case. With its huge wing and tail surfaces, along with light wing loading, the P40 was the most maneuverable American design throughout the war. It was rugged, had no vices and was unmatched in a dive--only the giant P47 was close. When it was in design, high-altitude interdiction was not included, therefore it did not have proper turbo supercharging for high altitude work. Saburo Sakai himself said the only American aircraft he feared, when properly handled by the pilot, was the P40.
Thanks Ron, really interesting read!
@@ScaleModelShed Ren - not Ron.
I like how you include your mistakes and how you fix them. It's really refreshing. I use gloss clear acrylic to affix clear parts give it a try
Thanks Brian, will do!
I think I might try my daughter’s cricket after watching this video for letters & numbers. But the circles don’t seem very good. I think decals look better than your circular roundels. And a lot easier! Thanks. I learn so much from you.
Very interesting to see how you do your weathering and chipping without hairspray...Thanks for the vid...very nice!
working my way through your channel and you do amazing work. The commentary is also very helpful instead of the captions. Love to see you do a tamiya 1/32 plane with all the extras. Cheers Stu
Beautiful work!!! And your paint work really brings the kit to life. I have been building model kits sence i was a kid and I still finding it amazing the outstanding work some modeler do. You just got another subscriber.
Thank you, and thanks for the sub!
Thanks for the detailed process, information about materials and tricks
Outstanding. I like how you did the exhaust stacks - will remember that one. I think decals might have been wiser for the fuselage roundels, but still a superb build and very inspiring!
Not so sure, I think that aircraft were moved between theatres so the desert camo may have been hastily applied. The roundels may also have been painted again by whoever drew the short straw. I have heard for example, that invasion stripes were applied with a bucket and sponge. I had the pleasure of inspecting this model close up earlier today...... and it's magnificent.
Love the weathering on this plane.
Thank you Johnny, thanks for watching.
Outstanding, just outstanding! Thank you for sharing
Thanks you Jan, thanks for watching.
Great job. I now have to get this model. Thanks.
Well, done great looking model, like the airbrush markings better than decals!
Scale Model shed your utube videos are awesome my friend
I really enjoyed watching this build!
This is outstanding. Love the weathering
Thank you.
As a most beloved Uncle of mine is fond of saying,
That's a Beautiful Thing^^
Sorry, I am only shipping to the UK at the moment. Andy
Once again, your work is inspiring!
wow ... paint effects are amazing.
What a beautiful piece of art! Looks incredible
Thank you!
Models are amazing and love watching the videos.
My dad was on P-40s in North Africa. Well done on the build. You pretty much aced all the techniques needed to present a very realistic model.
Thank you.
Wonderful build, keep up the great work and I look forward to your next posting
Thanks you, thanks for watching.
Awesome!... we have a P40 warbird here in NZ✈️🇳🇿
Awesome job, people often criticise Trumpy and their 32nd P40s, I think this video shows how good they can be.
Thank you.
1/32 my favorite scale !!!
That's the right seat pan, the only thing missing is the leather seat cushion. My grandfather flew one in WWII in the early 40s for the USAAF, I have pictures of his plane and the cockpit that he took while over seas.
I believe the parachute becomes the seat cushion. The ground crew may have thrown one in for their use.
I really like your use of "dust", it unified the model to have a more realistic appearance.
Nicely done
Thank you, thanks for watching.
Showing some love for the South Africans nice. I always admire when guys paint the markings I’m too lazy I just use the decals nice subject and build thanks
It is time consuming! Thanks for watching.
It may not have been the best plane of WW2 but I like the Warhawk, it just looks tough & strong, but then, I also prefer the Hurricane to the Spitfire, so what do I know.😜 Beautiful result btw.
Thanks Grant, the Hurricane is a gem!
I think that was one of the best cockpits I've ever seen.
Thank you David.
Great craftsmanship fella, the result was in my opinion an authentic looking aircraft. You created a beautiful looking model. Top job
Exceptionally well done, inspirational.
Fantastic looking build,love the way you have done the paint work, well done mate.
Thank you.
Great job!
Absolutely beautiful model. Love your work. What i inspire to be one day.
Really need a full video on how to assemble the hgw seatbelts. Im absolutely stumped by them
Beautiful. So realistic
Work of art!! Great job!
You are doing beautiful work, and I am learning a lot so thank you for sharing. 😊👍
Amazing work by real pro!
Absolutely amazing!
Phenomenal build! I'm doing a Hurricane IIC 1/32 in desert scheme and you have given me some ideas on techniques to use (if I ever get back to it!)
Thank you, thanks for watching.
Great Job!
Hi, I built the P-40N kit by Trumpeter , the canopy was a poor fit, the rest was good though, nice job!
Brilliant video my friend, I've just got back into modeling the last time I built a model I was 14yrs old I'm retired now and I'm 55 yrs old but I've bought 3 kits to get me started with photo etch , HMS Belfast 1/600 , Bristol Beaufort 1/72 and the Boulton Paul Defiant also 1/72 I've just purchased this evening Tamiya HMS King George V so I'm looking forward to getting that one 1/350 scale
Truly amazing!
Stunning detail.
Incredible!
Beautiful paint job.
AWESOME JOB Buddy!😍😍😍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Wild DETAILS..😍
Stunning..Great brushwork....
Thank you, thanks for watching.
