P-40 Collection 1/72


This is almost my entire collection of P-40s, from a Monogram P-36 to a P-40N curiously also from Monogram, although I suspect it is the old Aurora mold, I have old Lodela from the Optional Line for Collectors and Frog, also a new Hasegawa, P-40B / C / E / F / K / M / N, Tomahaw and Warhawk, I almost complete all the countries, although mixing the models in 1/144, 
 I still need some Egypt, Belgium, Holland, the one captured by Germany and the Finland, along with a fantastic one of Sky Captain and the one of John Wayne from the movie Flying Tigers, I have heard of one captured by Communist China and of course the P-40 Phantom, an Internet myth, but very good for modeling, also I am missing the P-40Q, which I will have to do from Scratch, as well as the experimental XP-42, 46 and 60.

I still need to photograph a few scattered pieces, along with the 1/144 and 1/48 copies.
