Started this build as a warm up to the group build next year. The kit is Tamiya's 1/48 Razorback and I'll be using Eagle Strike's "Spitfire and P-47's" (the one on the left) for the "Miss Dallas" Nose art.





As always the build starts with the cockpit with basic painting and weathered with Burnt Sienna oil wash and MIG's mud weathering powders. Hopefully tomorrow I'll get the final detail and chipping done and the tub together.



As always comments welcome

Allen:

I love the nose art on this one. I am impressed that you can build away from the bench. I can barely do anything at the bench . I love this kit and yours is really taking shape
