Your fingers make clear how tiny even a fuselage in this scale is. The more it is remarkable that you could open this ultra-tiny radiator inlet... :shoutout:
Yes it is tiny. My camera even had some problems to focus the pics. I think they should call it "out off focus" instead of autofocus. :headslap:

Basic construction is done.

On a credit card for a sense of scale.

And I made the propeller thinner. The upper one has not been done in this pic.

The P-40 looks much better than the Hurricane you showed.
The spinner seems to be a little bit big in this one also?

Yes, I agree. It does look better. But I will have to test fit the canopy for a final judgement.

And this spinner is also very big and to round/not pointy enough. I can probably sand it into a better shape.

Looking at the pic with the credit card I must say that this build is truly micro-modelling! :wow:
