cmatthewbacon Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 A real nostalgia build, this one... ...it may not be the best 1/72 P-47 out there, but this is how I remember my first one looking... more or less, anyway! bestest, M. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmcclure Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 A very well built and charming rendition. Those old kits still have plenty of life with a bit of care and effort. Well done indeed. Cheers, Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colin Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Very nice blast from the past, and a lot better than my Airfix P47 that I remember doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 (edited) Its how I remember my one of about 45 yrs ago looking too. Probably not as well made though, thats very tidy & nicely done. I've still got the bits of mine, disassembled to rebuild it one day, maybe I should bring that forward. Steve.

Paul J Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 So thats where my decals went!! Very nicely done for such an old tool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Work In Progress Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 It's a *great* nostalgia build. It's turned out a lot better than I remember the kit being capable of looking. Is it straight out of the box or have you 'helped' it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did mine in the SEAC colours and you have caused a huge wave of nostalgia - but I certainly didn't make it look as good as that little beauty.

Spookytooth Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 A nice build, it proves that one does not have to spend lots of money to produce a fine build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
