The late, great paper modeller, Fabrizio Prudenziati, better known from his now defunct website of paper models as Zio Prudenzio, had a few Curtis Kittyhawks available.
I saved one for future reference, in the event I ever built up the courage to try one at 1/200 scale.
That hasn't stopped me from retouching them to different schemes, like this one:
Originally a shark-mouthed GA-F plane from No. 112 Sqn, RAF, Libya, it is now bears HS-B, from No. 260 Sqn, RAF. This plane now represents PO James "Eddie" Edwards (I know him as "Stocky", as he changed his call sign after the war, and still goes by it today).
If anyone else gets their nerve up before I do, you might try this version.
PS: Assembly instructions might be nice, I suppose...
