Mr. Pink Posted October 23, 2009 #1 Posted October 23, 2009 Hi everyone, I recently finished this Thunderbolt not too long ago. It was fun building it and I have to say the P-47 is in my opinion the best looking warbird of it's time. I still have a few of them in various scales in my stash and I am looking forward building every single one of them. Heli
doyler Posted October 23, 2009 #3 Posted October 23, 2009 Mr.Pink Thats an awesome looking model of the P47.Superb detail.Well done.She looks ready to take off and go hunting!! RON
The Meatcan Posted October 23, 2009 #4 Posted October 23, 2009 great looking Jug! cool weathering job too. What kit and scale is this? thanks for sharing your nice work :thumbsup: Terry
Mr. Pink Posted October 24, 2009 Author #5 Posted October 24, 2009 Thanks guys! I am glad you like the T-bolt. Terry, it was teh hasegawa 1/48th scale kit. I have to say, not the best kit, there was a lot of putty and sanding required and therefore of course a lot of engraving of new panel lines etc. However it was fun building it and she doesn't look all too bad.

tar00 Posted October 24, 2009 #6 Posted October 24, 2009 What did you use for the nmf? It looks really good by the way.
Mr. Pink Posted October 24, 2009 Author #7 Posted October 24, 2009 Hi tar00 Not sure what nmf stands for.
FNG Posted October 25, 2009 #8 Posted October 25, 2009 Hi tar00 Not sure what nmf stands for. natural metal finish Cool model!
Mr. Pink Posted October 25, 2009 Author #9 Posted October 25, 2009 Ohhhhh, thanks FNG! I used two different metal sades of the Alclad paint line. I think it was dark chrome and chrome silver or something like that. Those paints are great but they do require a lot of pre work in order to apply them. However definitely worth the extra work.
