1/32 Trumpeter P-47D-5 "Spirit of Atlantic City"
This is 1/32 Trumpeter P-47 Thunderbolt with the markings of P-47D5 (42-8487) flown by Cpt Walker M. Mahurin 63rd FS, 56th FG Halesworth-England in March 1944.
I have used Eduard PE cockpit set and Hasegawa's P-47 rudder pedals ( Trumpeter's rudder pedal are not suitable for the razorback version)
I have used Quickboost's engine set with Trumpeter's magneto
Cowling flaps part backdated to D5
I have used Eduard Brassin wheel set.
Paints are Gunze acrylics
Decals: National insignias are from Barracuda decal set.
Customized fuselage code letters were produced by customhobbydecal from Australia.
Happy Modelling
Let me be the first to congratulate you on the completion of yet another masterpiece, Tolga. The photos are lovely, doesn’t it ever rain where you live?
Thanks George @chinesegeorge
Summer is still not over here. It hasn't rained for two months. I hope it starts raining now
Excellent work Tolga as always.
Thanks Dan @dbdlee
Well done as always. Your demarcation lines between the OD and gray are perfectly to scale on this and all of your US camouflaged planes. How do you do it? Freehand, masks?
Thanks John @j-healy
For the demarcation lines I use rounded Uhu patafix dough
A wonderful result as always, Tolga!
The weathering is phenomenal!
Thanks Spiros @fiveten
A wonderful result indeed, Tolga @tolgaul
Besides the details, also the painting and weathering came out perfectly.
Thanks John @johnb
Super job, Tolga (@tolgaul). The weathering is restrained and perfect, as is the attention to detail. Thank you for sharing your Razorback!
Thanks Matt @matthewfdyer

Weathering and panel line work is outstanding, love the dusted effect on the wheels...excellent P-47!

Super result. Please comment on your panel lines technique.
Thanks Matt @markhedrick
I use oil paint washing technique for panel lines
Awesome, Tolga (@tolgaul), especially in 1/32! Hopefully you have a lot of display space available.
Thanks John @gblair
There is enough space for now, but the future is uncertain
A gorgeous Jug - well done as always!
Thanks Greg @gkittinger
Understatement to say "Well done", Tolga. @tolgaul
There is so much to view when looking at one of your builds.
I just received this kit and the -N recently. Your builds will certainly be inspiration and reference when I get them on the bench.
Thanks Gary @gwskat, appreciated
Another spectacular Tolga masterpiece! I love admiring your builds.
Thanks a lot Chas @chasbunch
