Good one Bruce, that Tamiya P-47 is a damn fine kit - should look great.

Cheers

Bruce as a suggestion the looks of the crate might be more effective if you use the old olive drab paint job instead of aluminum. go check the little freinds web-site out and punch in 78th fighter group. go to gallery and you are set to go for many different Jug camo-markings for the 78th fg.

Nice one Bruce.

Looking forward to this. I have the same kit but for the N version in my stash and it's tempting me to get into it.

[Vic Balshaw]

Good selection Bruce, and a quick build, by my standards anyway.

[bemay]

cheers guys,I checked out the little friends website erich and there are plenty of good photos but i'm going to stay away from the olive drab/neutral gray paint scheme this time that would be three in a row for me and i need to have a change.But i have a razorback p-47 that i might do in either the 78th scheme or the checker tails but i have to get the decals.p.s i also have another p-47 bubble top but i want to do this in the RAF cammo in the P.T.O cheers.
