Foreign Service GB - 2 x P47's ++FINISHED++

Post by Deacon »

OK, don't shout Geoff, but here is another build I want to do for this GB.

It will be finished in these colours...

It may seem like I am setting too many hares running, but believe me, this GB could go on for 6 months and I still wouldn't finish all the foreign aircraft in British service that I want to build.

Considering this one is on my future purchase plan, i have nothing to shout about!

Anyway, my mouths a bit full getting ready to watch this :snack: as i believe it is one of the best 72nd Thunderbolts out there!

I do like Revell kits and I have built this kit OOB before.

Should have mentioned that there will be two builds as part of this thread.

Here is the other one....

The markings will be as shown on the last but one a/c on this sheet...

Well that means that by the time the Nose Art GB comes along, we will be able to compare these against the 2 Hasegawa P-47 i have lined up for that!

Finished by the weekend then? :grin:

I know there's no evidence of the nickname being used during the war, but...

I can't hold back... :sweat:

You're all thinking it... :whistle:

I'm gonna say it...

Lovely pair of jugs :oops: :yahoo:

Seriously, great to see these coming along Alan.
