1/32 Trumpeter P-47D 22 “Belle of Belmont”

[Tolga ULGUR]

Hi again,

Here is my recently finished 1/32 Trumpeter P-47D 22 with the markings of “Belle of Belmont” from 63rd FS / 56th FG in Boxted.

Note that this Thunderbolt has Curtiss Electric propeller though it is D22.

 

Cockpit enhanced with Yahu instrument panel and Eduard seatbelt

I have used Barracudacast main wheels and Eduard tail Wheel.

Paints are Gunze Sangyo acrylics

Decals are from “Kagero P-47 Thunderbolt with the USAAF- European Theatre of Operations” book.

Happy Modelling

Just getting back into the hobby, and I am utterly amazed at the quality of the builds I see here.  I doubt I'll live long enough to develop skills on par with what some of the folks here have, but I sure enjoy looking at them all.

Wellcome back to the club Rick.

What a beast!  These planes are so big and tough looking.  

 

The model looks wonderful.  I especially love the restrained paint chipping along those panel lines...it's all nicely in scale.

 

Paintwork overall is great!
