JohnB Posted May 15 Posted May 15 While waiting for the paint to dry on the Tamiya Spitfire Mk IX I'm going to proceed with another 1/48 Jug build. I'll use Thundercals on this one too (no sense in letting those nice decals just sit in the stash). 3 2
Peterpools Posted May 15 Posted May 15 John Awesome fill in / alternating build with the Spit. Just love those NMF Jugs. 1

KevinM Posted May 15 Posted May 15 You going to spice up some panels John?Will be a stunner either way. I have often thought John one could change some of the panels after the black base to a smooth grey primer/paint(buff) and spray with one color and see if the tone changes? 1

That might work well Kevin. I did some perusing of photos of NMF Jugs before I did the last one and decided there just didn't seem to be a lot of that. At least not in the photos I looked at. Certainly not like on P-51's. We'll see, I might decide to do a little something. 1
JohnB Posted May 19 Author Posted May 19 Painting completed. Alclad Aluminum over Alclad Black Base. Next will be some decals. 6

JohnB Posted May 20 Author Posted May 20 Done with this build. https://forum.largescalemodeller.com/topic/20152-2nd-148-p-47-from-burma-banshees-rfi/ 2
Peterpools Posted May 20 Posted May 20 John Awesome build - simply flawless. I do like the mages with the two Jugs together - both beautifully done.🏆
