Andrea Manfroi Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Dear all, Greetings from Italy. Finally, after two years of forced stop I'm back to modelling. A new start in a new home, with much more space to build and show my airplanes (with wife blessing of course). This kit is the very nice Tamiya P-47 M, 63rd FS, 65th FG, 8th AF, England 1945 built practically OOB just with some little extra scratchbuilt details on the engine and in the cockpit. To paint it I used Tamya primer, Tamiya acrylics (with airbrush) and Tamiya spray finishing just with a slight homemade oil wash for weathering. Not 100% perfect but I would say a decent re-start. Enjoy pictures and please feel free to comment. Any suggestion to improve is more than welcome. Cheers, Andy 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noelh Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Looks good. I like the way the P47 had some unusual colour schemes. I've had to stop modelling too for quite a long time. But, fingers crossed, we're about to move into a bigger house with plenty of room for my models. Hopefully I'll get a few finished this year. Great work on that P47.
