Reini78 Posted April 25, 2018 Author Share Posted April 25, 2018 the Hasegawa P-47s can´t keep up with the Tamiya ones, wing to fuselage fit isn´t very good DSC_0003 by Reinhard Spreitzhofer, auf Flickr a step on the upperside which has to be sanded down DSC_0004 by Reinhard Spreitzhofer, auf Flickr DSC_0006 by Reinhard Spreitzhofer, auf Flickr and a nice gap which my dad will fill with plastic sheet DSC_0007 by Reinhard Spreitzhofer, auf Flickr DSC_0008 by Reinhard Spreitzhofer, auf Flickr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reini78 Posted April 28, 2018 Author Share Posted April 28, 2018 Sadly often Hasegawa kits only include the parts you need for the versions provided in the kit, in this case for an early P-47. To say, there were no wing bomb racks included, had to steal them from another Hasegawa kit. Furthermore only the early CE prop was there, found a needed paddle CE prop in the sparesbox.

Reini78 Posted May 12, 2018 Author Share Posted May 12, 2018 started with the decals, Cartograf printed, work fine but as feared they are thin and part of the invasion stripes shine through, maybe apply another star over the first one DSC_0005 by Reinhard Spreitzhofer, auf Flickr 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
