P-47S Thunderhog? for the twenty first century. 1/72 Revell.
This started out as Revells 1/72 P-47M. Until my twisted mind spent too much time figuring out what scheme to choose. The result is a somewhat updated Thunderbolt. Utilizing modern ground attack weapons, some additional bumps and antennae a conformal fuel tank and replacing the eight fifties with four 20 mms. Nick naming it the Thunderhog, with respect to the Thunderbolt and the Warthog. I sourced the decals from an old Hasegawa F-4E sheet.
Very inspiring and excellently built, Robert!
Well done!
Nicely done Robert, interesting what if, looks good.
This should have been impressive firepower at the end of the war, Robert @roofrat
Nice build.
It looks good, Robert, and I like the name, “Wartbolt” doesn’t have the same ring to it.
Warbolt works too.
Great way to keep the mojo flowing! Well done, Robert
Very creative work !
That's an interesting idea, Robert. Very cool.
Very cool concept Robert @roofrat! 😎 And it looks great too! 🍺
Fun idea. Like.
As an old retired A-10 pilot, I can honestly say that is SWEEEEEET! The lineage really shows. Well done.
Always interesting when the imagination runs wild! Very cool project - well done.
Pretty cool. I've done a few things like that after sniffing too much glue! You've inspired me to post some.
Robert, Looks like you had a lot fun on this one. I'll bet you've got a lot modelers thinking right now !
Nice, I am not a fan of "What if's" but this one hits it out of the ballpark, I love it! A poor man's replacement for the A-10...
That’s one seriously ominous looking beast you’ve created here, Robert. Very cool.
That’s an intimidating looking jug Robert. Cool idea- well executed. Thumbs up!
@roofrat - Awesome kitbash Robert!
Tanks all!
Thunderhog, I like it and why not, believe it would have worked.
Cool build and impressive weapons load!
