I second what James said! Very good job mate! But, maybe you can weather the prop too😉 And a little black paint in the front openings of the rocket tubes would really finish it.

James thanks a bunch.
Erik thank you too. Reason i left the prop blades as they are because i don't know what they are IRL; wooden or metal? i assume they'd be metal due to their shape but i prefer to confirm first.

If I am correct your model is fitted with the Curtiss 13' paddle blade propeller. The 2nd type prop for the P-47, of a total of 4

Rgr Erik will do chipping on the leading edges of the blades also take care of the zooks while there.
As for the blades, box had 3 sets of blades and Tamiya specifically calls this type for the Little Chief, however accurate it is i have no idea. 🙂

Thanks folks.
@Adam, unfortunately no wip shots, i don't bother with them anymore. i' say every known trick in the book from hairspray to water pencils had found their way onto the model during painting and wx stages.

Markus, Cristian and Seb thanks a bunch lads.
@Flop_Se, no i am not a professional modeler by any measure, i did build a couple of commissions but that's about it. as for the amount of kits, i do have a wide enough bench which allows me to work with 2 kits at a time usually; as i am painting one i am gluing another while the other is drying. hope it made sense 🙂
