Similar how? White tail and wing leading edges? I made an P-40F like that "18th FG/ 44th FS" - but it's OD green as a base.

When I finish my P-40N template, there will be a U.S. scheme similar to this. It's 3rd or 4th in line for that model.

Something like that one. :x   :aok

Nice improvement.

Is it just me or do the undersides of the horizontal stabs look like a different shade of gray from the rest of the underside?

Very nice improvement on the wings. :aok  I have to agree with Devil, the horizontal stabilizers look to be a different shade, and to add, appears to have a bit of that "freshly painted" look.  Again, not sure if that is your target though for the tail.  :headscratch:

They are white,  but very off white, mainly to offset the light bleaching things out, then again they should be the same as the leading edge stripes.
Thanks.

. adjusted, it appears to me the amount of surface area affects the final colour...

Oops, I forgot the tail was white.
