Nice job on the windscreen, looks great. I guess Hasegawa corrected the windscreen in the next batch of models so that might be what you friend has. (y) (y) (y)

And it must be true. I received a new P-40 E and the box art just noticed that the windshield did not bring the frame.

I see the sprue of the transparencies and there was already corrected the windshield.

It has been forgotten in a corner of the workbench. I was giving shade to another kit and, contrary to what I do, I gave shadows to the P-40.

Looks like you lightened your base to do the highlights, what did you lighten with?

To do the highlights, mix the base color in a bottle (1) yellow or white (0.5) and thinner (4). In the case of the color green with yellow in brown and gray, with white in the same proportions.

The shadows applied.
