I have one in the stash, don't know fitting, mold is nice and instructions are easy to follow. Also, it SEEMS pretty accurate, most P-40's don't have the correct wheel bays this one does.

Arrii/Otaki kits are pretty reasonable starter kits, basic and not too hard to build...

Built their ki 100. Definately a good beginning kit

With a little work this can be a real winner. a few years ago "finescale modeler" had a "how to" article on it. I followed their advice and added a few odds and ends and won a "best of show" with it
