Saddler Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 HI Folks I'm here again with my latest build, the unusually camouflaged P-47M. This is a pretty good kit and went together well. I have read the various theories regarding the coloursused but decided on VMA signal blue for the dark, and VMA Azure fior the lighter blue. The other blue on the tail was a 50/50 mix of VMA blue & white. Once again I was disapointed with the Alclad airframe aluminium finish(more like gunmetal) which I'm again putting down to my lack of prep work and impatience. This meant I repainted the wing leading edges with humbrol metalcote(not that impressed with the stuff). PS: sorry about the picnic table again !!! 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzio Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Very nice work there, love the camo you've painted too. I've got one of these to build myself actually, hope mine comes out half as good as yours. Kind Regards, Dazz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
