Another 78th FG P-47 – Frank Oiler’s “Eileen” – 1/32 hasegawa
With two other 78th FG P-47s up today, I might as well follow the theme. I've done a lot of studying this past year of these P-47s while writing "Aces of the 78th Fighter Group" (which Osprey will publish this coming [...]
1/48 Tamiya P-47 D23 Thunderbolt
Here is a natural metal Razorback from my P-47 collection. This is 1/48 Tamiya P-47 D23 RA Thunderbolt with the markings of 82ndFS / 78 th FG / 8 th Air Force based in Duxford England during 1944. This natural metal machine was flown by [...]
Revell P-47D Thunderbolt
My first post here on imodeler. I'm not up to the standard of most modelers here...but here is my Revell P-47, finished in Alclad paints with the kit decals.
1:32 scale Trumpeter P-47D-15-Re, “Thunderbolt”
Restarting a long stalled project from the "Shelf of DOOM"...
After building the Hasegawa kit, (Which is a fine model by the way) I decided to get into THIS kit, because other than the old Revell offering, it's the only 1:32 [...]
1:32 scale, Hasegawa P-47M-1-Re, "Thunderbolt"
This is another one of my "Jugs" that currently reside at the American Airpower Museum in Farmingdale, NY. I think between Koppos and myself, we have a few there... ;).
It's a big model, so before you get into building her, make [...]
Tamiya 1:48 scale Republic P-47M-1-Re, "Thunderbolt"
Another fine model from Tamiya. I won't go into a whole bit about HOW great this kit is, but suffice to say, it's awesome.
The upper surfaces of the model are painted in Model Master Enamels, in a very VERY dark blue, which looks almost [...]
1:48 Scale, Tamiya P-47D-15Re, "Thunderbolt"
One of MY favorite models of all time. I know Koppos has that theme running but I have to say this is one really well engineered kit and it's a terriific build.
This time, I did build the model OOB. It really doesn't need to have [...]
Terry Schuler’s “The Cotton Chopper” (Tamiya, 1/48th)
This article was originally written and posted by my good friend David Hansen who was on imodeler at the time and I was not. Therefore this article puts me into a third person position. Being transferred to my blog March 2015, I decided to [...]
Tamiya 1/48 P-47D Bubbletop
This kit is the Tamiya P-47D Bubble Top. Built straight out of the box, except Super Scale decals. True story, thats real funny. The reason I chose to do this aircraft is my mother-in-law. She is a sweet lady, I love her to death. She is a [...]
1/48th Tamiya P-47D, Ole Cock III
This is my P-47 that was built out of the box except for the decals which are from the Wolf Pack series by Aeromaster. I have always loved the P-47 and when I was a kid I built at least a half dozen of the Monogram kits and painted them [...]
