Erwin Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Hi all, I managed to buy this at the Antwerp convention today. I needed to find something for this GB. MikeMaben, Alain Gadbois, Martinnfb and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted March 18 Author Share Posted March 18 (edited) First progress. Don't compare this ancien kit with Hasegawa or Trumpeter. No cockpit and engine worth showing. Bad fitting.I added a small screw inside to fix the wings stronger to the fuselage. So,again,this will be all about the "overall look" I plan to do this as a "museum" plane with full stripes.

Alain Gadbois Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Nice find! Big in 1/32 scale, yet as many parts as a 1/72 scale kit! Fast and fun build! Alain Erwin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dennismcc Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Nice kit for it's day, I built the SEAC version alongside the bubble version of the kit and enjoyed both builds. Cheers Dennis Erwin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted March 21 Author Share Posted March 21 (edited) The main build is done with a rough base coat. This also fills the small gabs. From now on it all about painting. Edited March 21 by Erwin dennismcc, denders, BradG and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted March 29 Author Share Posted March 29 (edited) Far from perfect.But good enough for me. Painting is not based on a real P-47. Will add some tail marking or extra stripes to dress it up a bit. Edited March 29 by Erwin Dpgsbody55, MikeMaben, denders and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
