I would just like to add how pleased I am with my one model related Christmas present - it's something totally different from what I have done so far, but also something I have always been interested in. (I can blame Mr. Tim Gow for this, as he spotted these Airfix kits going cheap in Aldi of all places!)
This really is a blast from the past! I was in love with the original Airfix P-40 E A1 kit (in the old style plastic bag) when I was a kid so this was a lovely bit of nostalgia. Of course, the new Airfix Curtiss Tomahawk IIB is a completely new tooling and is pretty nice.
This is my Festive holiday project and will be a lovely change of pace. I've gathered together some interesting reference books, including a specialist Osprey modelling volume on the P-40 series...
I'm looking forward to relaxing with this project this festive holiday and I really hope you all have something similarly enjoyable from Santa this year...
Best wishes, and have a Happy New Year.
Steve
