Building the Kitty Hawk T-6/Harvard in 1/32 Scale

In this 209-page eBook, Kevin Futter and Chuck Sawyer tackle the Kitty Hawk Texan/Harvard kit in 1/32 scale. The first build is an out-of-box build using no aftermarket parts and as few modifications to the basic kit as possible. The model is also finished using the kit decals. This build is designed to illustrate what can be achieved using only the kit parts, and highlight any problems with the kit itself.

In the second build, Chuck Sawyer addresses many of the kit’s shortcomings, using a modicum of aftermarket parts and some scratch-building to enhance the accuracy, detail, and realism of the resulting model.
