Awesome shark mouth. And I've been waiting for a P-40 with the early US insignia. But, you got me, who is Dick Hansen?

I believe he does R/C models of all kinds, including WWII. thebest, did you happen to use a picture of one of his models as a reference?

It looks a little dark to me, but I'm almost positive this is because of the time you took the picture. Very good, I might suggest toning down the panel lines on the rudder also.

One thing to remember is that skins must be historical to get into the game. I'm not sure the shark mouth was ever used on a P-40 that also bore the 1941 US insignia. I could certainly be wrong though. Do some research or ask here. There's lots of P-40 resources around - guys on this board probably know the answer too.

Keep at it!

Talk to Guppy35. Hes got a huge collection of WWII photos and things. Im pretty sure he'll be able to hook you up with some good information.

Nice,

It would be cool if you put one of the 3 Flying Tigers Sqd Insig on there too.

First Pursuit is pretty cool.
