Hasegawa 1/32 P-40E. The fuselage is together. The wing is on. Time for some primer to be able to find areas for cleanup.

There is a plan. Joe

Hasegawa 1/32 P-40E. Fuselage together. Moving on to the wing. The hard part I think will be the gun bay. Joe

I solved that particular issue with this build. Not going to have an engine. Joe

Saul I have another, in your vast collection do you have anything clear on the wing frames from the wheel well out to the end of the ammunition box? I have something put together but not overly satisfied with it. Joe

Hasegawa 1/32 P-40E. The cockpit is in. The radio equipment is installed. The fuel tank is in. The oil tank is in. Lead wire is used on the back of the instrument panel. All told there are only five pieces from the kit other than the fuselage. Joe

Hasegawa 1/32 P-40E. We have color. Vallejo Interior Green and Zinc Yellow. More soon Joe

Now this is the reason for so few pictures through the build. Scale Aircraft Magazine, July 2025.

Ok, what I attempted was the SCR 274 N. Some things were wrong in the attempt. It does look like the right set though. Going to have to redo what I had on the go for this time. I had thought it was either the 183 set or the 274 and based on one picture it looked like the 183. Definitely a...

So many rabbit holes to travel down. Joe

This is the photo I was confused by. Wondered how I had screwed up so bad and had not caught it. Joe

Ok that is where my confusion lies. I've done the -E before and looking at pictures I was confused. The one I am thinking of is the SCR 264N. I have the sets confused. Joe.

Ok Saul here is another but kind of specific. Do you have anything showing the area from the access door aft on and aircraft with the SCR 183 radio equipment? Joe

Saul right. Trying to figure out how to make it look right without compromising the bulkheads. Thinking separate pieces for either side, glued to the bulkhead. The shape isnt right either. Joe

Hasegawa 1/32 P-40E. Time to update. The frames are in. Need to think on the fuel tank. More soon. Joe

Hasegawa 1/32 P-40E. After some thought it was time to cut it up. Joe

IP sorted. Now, one series of pictures show a breaker panel on the starboard side of the cockpit. Not sure about that. I have seen photos with the breaker panel, radio and electrical equipment, and almost bare. Joe

I am not making much sense. Joe

Ok, confusion has set in. The instrument panel seems to change with every picture i see. The lower part seems to have a vary of configurations. Also noticing differences in the starboard side of the cockpit. Some show a breaker panel others do not. Thought I was good to push forward but...

No worries. Got to admit though, I really do enjoy looking at the drawings and schematics when I do research. Joe
