Next is the Curtiss Hawk in Flying Tiger scheme. The kit is of the same standard as we are getting used to from Airfix these days and the kits high lights are the wing guns and the separate wheel hubs. The decals from Cartograf are particularly nice with very crisp printing. As with the Zero you get only one colour option, the Flying Tigers in China 1942. The instruction calls out for H28 on the underside and H116, H119 on the top side. The true nature of the aircrafts DuPont made colours are frequently debated in the modelling community but I think Airfix is in the ball park with these colours.
