Great looking bird ! Paintjob, weathering and chipping look really authentic. Even more so, considering that you didn`t use an airbrush !

Dzięki Łukasz, miło mi, że się podoba 🙂 Thanks for Your nice comments, I'm glad You like it. I've made shading in old-school way - I used graphite from pencil as a dry pigment and covered it by Humbrol matt cote. Panel lines also marked using thin hard pencil. I like to paint using classic paintbrush and it relaxes me after the day at work 🙂

Hello Everyone!

I'd like to present my next finished project. In my opinion, kit is very nice and building it was great pleassure.
Firstly I planned to paint the aircraft in USAF natural metal finnish, but I've had problems obtaining nice surface (I use a brush, not an airbrush) and finally decided to make safer version of paintwork. Looking at the final effect I dont regret this 😄
Generally I'm very sattisfied with this model, even though I'm aware that it's not perfect. I attached kit bombs, because French P-47's made a lot of ground strike missions during WWII.

Please let me know what do You think😄
