I love Jugs and really must get round to building one in 1/32nd. (or indeed a Kinetic 1/24th!) My Tamiya 1/48th version is one of my favourite completed models (and that's saying something for me!) Can't wait to see your further progress... Thanks , yes P-47 is one of my favorite fighters too. And I've built too many P-47s for there to be any logical explanation.

mywifehatesmodels Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 Great work and thank you for posting your pics of the wing spar/platform and how you cut it. I'm also using the Aires set and was just getting to the same point that you are when I saw your photos. You saved me a headache. THANKS!

John Hi John Also you have to cut off the surplus part at the base of Aires part. This is also proof that Hasegawa's cockpit is a bit shallow.

mywifehatesmodels Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 Nice work on the engine! It's my understanding that the Quickboost engine cylinders won't fit in the cowl without surgery. Your method looks like a nice way to fix that. John Tolga ULGUR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
