Matchbox, 1/72 – P-47D Thunderbolt

Some of my first aircraft kits…
Hi!
Well, the pics were taken quite a few years ago, and depict some of the then still survivors from my aircraft building "golden age", many, many moons ago (between 35 to 40 years ago!) .

Hasegawa 1/32 P-47D-30 (08174) ‘Eight Nifties’

The P-47 Factory
I have received a few requests for WIP of one of my P-47 builds.
The pics show what I have done in the last 3 days, probably a 1-2 hour stretch of modelling on those days. I have been fiddling with my Airfix P-51D and a few tidy ups on the pain[...]
