1/32 Trumpeter P-47D5 "Spirit of Atlantic City"

[Tolga ULGUR]

This is 1/32 Trumpeter Thunderbolt with the markings of P-47D5 (42-8487) flown by Cpt Walker M. Mahurin 63rd FS, 56th FG Halesworth in March 1944.

I have used Eduard PE cockpit set and Hasegawa's P-47 rudder pedals ( Trumpeter's rudder pedal are not suitable for the razorback version)

I have used Quickboost's engine set with Trumpeter's magnetos

Cowling flaps part backdated to D5

I have used Eduard Brassin wheel set.

Paints are Gunze acrylics

Decals:  National insignias are from Barracuda decal set. Customized fuselage code letters were produced by customhobbydecal from Australia.
