Thank for your comments!

How was the building of this kit? Thought of buying it yesterday but wasnt sure, because another P-47 (think it was the D) from Revell is horroable....

This one is my old kit...built maybe 6 years before...It was really pleasure to build...no flaws at all...Do not miss it for the very old Revell P47d (from '60....) If mold for this one "M" is not spoiled, this one could be winner!

That's great!

Soeren R.
Ok that sounds good. I think I meant the Skill 2 Kit (the D-Version) which is really bad.... But thx for the info 🙂

Kerber Forfatter
You can make D-25 version, D-28 version from this one...This mean, D-25re is without fin fillet, D-28re is with fin fillet, as M . The main difference is in engine...Try to find on net, where is that difference or what is...i think that is not problem to modify M engine to D version...I have one more M, to make D version without fin fillet, but at the moment, i do not know, what I exactly must to do with engine, but, I'll find out!
Or, You can try with Academy "Eileen"...some said the this one have more appropriate "legs" than Revell....

Soeren R.
Ok good to know thx. Yeah I already have 2 Academy kits on stash and they look nice so far (The Razorback and the Bubble Top)

Nicely done Kerber, very nice...🙂👍
Is it the same Plane as Erik Alles??? the markings look very similar as does the cockpit!!!

Forgive me if my question is obvious, but I'm not well versed in Military, still learning😄

Erik Apunkt
Nice one!
One can't have enough of these colourful 56th FG Jugs. 👍

@Steve
Same Fighter Group, different squadron. Kerber's Jug depicts Capt. Charles McBath's mount. 63FS, 56FG, 8 AF, Boxted, England, May 1945
Mine depicts George Bostwick's Jug. 63FS, 56FG, 8 AF, Boxted, England, May 1945

Aaaaah!!! thanks for the excellent and precise well informed clarification, nice thanks again🙂👍
For those interested Boxted Airfield is being preserved for prosperity and for future generations to see...
Look here: boxted-airfield.com/
Out of interest I've taken Coach parties there in the past🤔

thnx for your comments! Erik answered well. If i am in right, almost all Jugs of 56.FG had unique camo..

Moram da priznam da mi je, od svih varijanta farbanja Tanderbolta, ova bila najmanje simpatična. Sve do sada. Tek sada vidim koliko dobro izgleda. Odličan rad, drugar! 🙂
Uzgred, koja je prava boja donjake Eileen? Na nekim profilima je britanska sky blue, a na drugim klasična svetlo siva.

Kerber Forfatter
Najvise njih kaze da je cela u britanskim bojama...dole- sky, gore - dark green bitanska, ili ti Humbrol 30.
Ja bih je tako radio. Mislim da ju je tako i sendmen odradio. Bronze green unutar kabine, yellow zink chromate otvori za tockove i poklopci. Noge metal/aluminium.
Drago mi je da ti se dopada ova rugoba...hehehe
