logan181 Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 (edited) Karl The landing gear should be on it's way. One question, are you using the propeller provided in the kit? If you are may I recommend using the Hamilton Standard prop in the Hasegawa P-47D as a replacement. The Trumpeter offering has some shape issues, that would be a pain to address.

Guest Maxim Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 Nice progress. The trumpy kit is not an easy build let alone trying to modify it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackbetty Posted July 4, 2018 Author Share Posted July 4, 2018 but its the only game in town for a latemodel corsair... worked some more on the decals. dont know if the light blue of the markings is too light. on the old colourshots of the original its very difficult to nail the shade since every lighting produces another colour. wadda ya think? 60 by karl holubar, auf Flickr 59 by karl holubar, auf Flickr LSP_Ray, Kagemusha, KiwiZac and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
