Figured out the squadron on the box. According to the profile I found its of the Tsukuba Naval Air Corps of the Imperial Japanese Navy Airforce from Oita Air Base July 1945. Profile is suppose be of a Mitsubishi A6M5C Model 52C. It was an advance training unit deployed for home defense duties.
Thats good! because I can't find these dam profiles starting to be convinced they didn't come with any

109 don't be discouraged. Even crappy kits have some promise. This Advent kit is the old 50's Revell kit. She has lots of life yet!
Your builds inspiring , it shows you can get a decent result (Note: "you" not me! ) I hope to develop my weathering ability on this build (so don't be surprised if it turns to crap) Il try my best though
Heres a pic of the cowl ,as you can see my photograhpy sucks but it sorta shows the bad mold quality -some of it can't be seen (Dammit)

Yes indeed master Wojtek !! The kit! needs abit of work .Il get some detailed shots up tomorrow -I'd be interested in your comments of how I could improve it .Want to learn as much as possible!
Glad to see someone building a Japanese bird I have a 1/48 Aichi D3A1 (Val) I could enter. But I don't know if I'd have the time to build this as well as the A20 & P40. You going to have her well weathered with lots of bare metal showing through Dan?
Absolutely! I plan to give her 2 decent coats of silver then a light airbrush coat of the 'green' Then I start playing around with it! This is the most likely scheme but I haven't 100% decided yet
