Twin Fuselage P-40

[Ed S]

Nice.  You've done a good job matching up the wings.  I'm looking forward to more of this one.

Do you know the P-40 Twin-Tigerhawk (in the cartoon Luftwaffe 1946 then in a book of mine)?

Thanks for the kind comments. Not too much progress, but the bulk of the PSR is now done and a light blue undercoat has been applied.

Chap - it will be Soviet. My original back story had this as a Russian project but I'm thinking now that perhaps it will be a US project supplied under lend-lease and painted in a three tone green/brown/grey scheme with red stars on white discs similar to the delivery scheme used on some B-25 Mitchells.

Sequoia - yes the inner u/c legs will have to be shortened. I used this method to build a P-39 based Twin Kobra and I was surprised at just how much had to be take off the inner oleos to make them fit. I built a twin fuselage Shturmovik some years ago and used only the outer U/C legs but it just looked wrong.

Tophe - I bought "Fantomes Fourchus" several years ago and I've since downloaded "The End of Forked Ghosts" (which provided the inspiration for the Twin Kobra) but I'd not seen the P-40 Twin Tigerhawk before - I assume that this is in the "Supplement No-1" which I don't have.

Yes, Ted Nomura's Twin-Tigerhawk is featured in the Supplement N°1 to Forked Ghosts. I include here a view. You see this is different from your one, so you are a creator indeed! Thanks again
