I have purchased a kit, and some after market. I am ready to get started. I am pinning reference photos here at the top.









Wish me luck

I so have been a way for a while. But I decided to restart all of my model projects. All at once

Nothing better than getting stuck in after a break is there.

The Tamiya P-47's are nice kits to build. I have a bubble top in the stash. I've taken to doing OOB builds but am very interested in doing a Gabby build with it. It's on the back burner for now though so who knows. Look forward to seeing all your projects completed.

OK after a looooong (and much needed) break from the hobby I have picked back up and I am working on this project again. Someone else here just did an excellent version of this same kit, and I found it inspiring.
