DONE: P-47N, 2 Big and Too Heavy 318th Fg 333rd Fs, Group Build

following Les's lead and as i'm at work for ten day's straight from tomorow i'll start my thread for the PTO build.

i'm building a P-47N from the 318thFg 333rd Fs Ie shime 1945 2 big and too heavy in 1/48 scale from Revell.

revell 1/48 P-47N 2 big and too heavy
class 3 out of box build

the box art paint scheme is incorrect as individual aircraft numbers and the short shorter nose art was not added untill after the tail of the sqn's thunderbolts were painted with yellow and black diagnal stripes which i hope to paint on my model
