    It's really looking good! Looks like you got over the construction dust hazard.

    Hi Everyone

    Happy New Year to all!
    Update on the P-47, slow going at the moment. With best intentions to get a lot of modelling done over Christmas and New Year, not to be...
    Here are the latest pictures, with concerted effort she should be done in next few weeks. Did have some issues with decals, quite a few lifted off the model without any explanation...never happened to me before so not sure what was going on there, maybe heavier gloss coat to seal in the decals? I generally have a spare set for any decal disasters.

    Happy Modelling!
    Darren

    I just had a similar decal experience with one of my Hellcat builds...

    Looks like you have managed to work your way through it though... I like how it's turning out.

    Thanks for the updates.
