stevej60 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Hi folk's well January like last year has given us a cracking GB, this time the subject is Republic's Thunderbolt.I picked up two Revell kits and used the kit decal's for a French machine and an Airfix/Academy mix for the RAF machine.I never questioned Academy's colour scheme for the RAF machine and it seems no clear evidence has surfaced only to say that these aircraft were delivered in the scheme and repainted in theatre with the more common brown/green finish,thanks for looking in.I am building the third example soon here's how they build. http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234995068-a-trio-of-revell-p47;s/ 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcdonnell Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Hello,Stevej60 - My compliments to you on two beautiful looking builds of your 'Thunderbolts'. I love the quality and detail of the paint and finishing work and commend the clean patina.They are both resplendent tributes to the type.All the best,Paul. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKguyInUSA Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 You can't beat a great pair of "Jugs"! My favorite one is the grey/green with white stripes...I find that color scheme appealing to my eye. Cheers! Martin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
