bapowell Posted January 5, 2023 Posted January 5, 2023 Hi all! This is my first WWII build. OOB Tamiya, lovely kit. Aftermarket decals SuperScale Decal No. 72-811. Tamiya acrylic base coats with Tamiya enamel pin wash and some weathering with Abteilung 502 and Mig Oil Brushers. A very loud shout-out to Seamus whose P-47 inspired and served as the model for this build. Thanks for looking! 22
Alpha Delta 210 Posted January 5, 2023 Posted January 5, 2023 These has been a brace of gorgeous Jugs over the past few days, and yours is stunning! Great result for your first WW2 type. 1
billn53 Posted January 6, 2023 Posted January 6, 2023 Another Thunderbolt build! Excellent!!! My next Jug will be the 1/72 Tamiya kit, I trust it went together like a charm?

72nders Posted January 6, 2023 Posted January 6, 2023 Great JUG , thanks for sharing! Would you mind to tell me how old was the SuperScale decal sheet you used on this build? I have some old ones and a bit worried if they are still usefull. Thanks in advance. 1

Not sure how old, though they looked pretty fresh. Just test one out first. Good luck! 1

No - this is not what I meant - the build and paint were so nice that it is hard to believe it is just OOB !!!!!!! Keep it going, and I have the same kit which I got couple of weeks ago at SGD 8. You have set a high standard, and I wonder if I want to share mine once it is done in future Regards Ernest 1
