Miniart 1/48 P-47D Bubbletop: And how it compares with Tamiya's
Miniart's P 47D is a very good kit. It is highly detailed and has a complete textured riveting array that represents the real deal. However, parts are very delicate and the plastic is soft. This results in an added building effort in [...]
