Robert Podkoński Thank you for your interest, Mates, much appreciated! Actually, this painting was the main reason for me to build a "Jug". It reminds a bit the after war Cleveland racers' schemes to me. (also, I needed something of a 'leisure build' 😉 )... Interestingly enough, this black "Jug" was flown under the Egyptian sun...

Neuling Right or wrong - looking good the way it is ..........
Did you do something with the panel lines, or is it a uniform surface?
And good work with the decals 👍

Łukasz Gliński Very nice result 👍 What should be the prop?
That escalated really quickly, I need such quick projects 😄

Robert Podkoński Thank you all, Mates 🙂
@Simon - I decided to leave the panel lines without any wash. I only highlighted the control surfaces with pencil 😉
@Łukasz - to the best of my knowledge it should be the Curtiss-Electric "cuffed" propeller.

Djordje Nikolic Love it! Definitely one of the most interesting liveries on a Thud and you executed it perfectly!
Robert Podkoński Thank you, Djordje! Frankly speaking, for me this livery was the reason to build a Thunderbolt 😉
@David - exactly. But the shape of the propeller in the kit bears no similarity to any kind and the decals in the set are for Hamilton Standard (and I used them only to avoid a "blank" propeller blades...)
