This goes to the winner of Shipwreck's Off The Deck Contest.
http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...l-contest.html Been a while since I built a model, my first time doing a >Military/aircraft/with camo< model...everything was painted by hand/brush, no masking or spraying. |

Superb weathering and battle damage skills. If you didn't tell us it was 1/48, I would've thought it was bigger bc of the amount of detail. Nice job dude, it looks awesome.

Thats is all kinds of awesome. The damage to it really makes it unique. One question, isn't that a Greek Air Force marker on the wings? Or is it the SEAC (South East Asia Command) RAF roundel?

Check the uploaded pic in post #1, that was the best reference pic I found and mainly went with that. Along with that pic was this write up: "Curtiss Mohawk: No. 155 Sq. had Mohawks (variation of the Curtiss P-36 Hawk, also know as Curtiss Hawk Model 75) from Aug 1942-Jan 1944 when they received Spitfire VIIIs. The yellow markings were to avoid confusion with radial-engined Japanese fighters especially Oscars which had a similar wing-plan. The national insignia had the red painted out with white. Later that year the white was replaced with pale blue (the white was TOO visible ). Undersides were medium sea grey. " Instructions on the kit simply state: "The Mohawk was used in the far east by the RAF from 1940-1944"
