P-47M Revell/Hobby 2000 1/72

Hello Friends,

I just finished my next project with in total 2xP-47D and 3xM.

I will present you now two of them. Kit is a Hobby 2000 (Poland) reissue from Revell's P-47M,

I bought it because of the decals, the are very nice printed by Cartograf Italy, but pin ups are printed in the new and worse technology using by Cartograf in pixels 😧

I had an extra Revell kit so I used both markings from the Hobby 2000 box and added USAAF stars from Tamiya's leftovers.

Revell is a nice kit but wrong in shapes, I sanded down the belly so it isn't looks so bad like original from kit. I don't used any aftermarket sets.

I will posted my 3 Tamiya "Jugs" soon.

Great looking Jugs Jerzy. I recently built Josephine using the Kits World decals with the same kit. Still enjoy the Revell P-47D/M to this day

Those are so very nice! Thanks for sharing them.

Yet another set of fantastic Jugs, Jerzy.

 

Cheers Allan

I know the Revell 'Mike' Jugs are nice kits, but the finish on these models is so sharp I initially would have sworn these were the 1/48 Tamiya ones.
Very nice!

Excellent!

I really love the Revell P-47 (D and M variants) for its keen pricing and fidelity - quite a bargain in my view.

Must admit I can cope with the apparent "pot belly" that people criticise it for; but I am easily pleased, I guess. 😜

Your reworking of the belly really improves the pregnant guppy look of the OOTB kit.
