Hello all:

Today I finished my Academy P 47D in 1/72 for this Campaign (first entry). It´s an OOB.
I´m happy with the result, the kit is easy to build and when finished it looks good in shape and sizes
The paints I used are Model Master Aluminium Plate Buffing Metalizer, Stainless Stell Buffing Metalizer, the reds, yellow, interior green and olive drab are Model Master Acrylics. The NMF was saeled with MM Metalizer Sealer. For weathering the panel lines I used chalk powder. Decals are from the kit except the National Insignia that are from Revell.
Here are the pics:









In the case to protect it:

Wow !!

Absolutely stunning Carlos. You have achieved a superb finish.

Cheers

Thanks Peter

Great entry, Carlos!! You did a really nice job on that one. It looks like it is ready to get down low hunting Tigers and Panthers

Really colourful markings.

Thanks for participating

Hi everybody

please use the new "part two Down low tank busting official tread" in stead of this tread. This is to ensure that the forum runs faster.

@Jean-Luc: could you please "unstick" this tread and make the new down low official tread "sticky".

Thanks Jesper. Now I´m working in my second entry,
another P 47D in 1/48 I´ll post the pics in the new thread.
