1:48 hobbyeasy P-47D

[rverissimo]

Hi all!

i would like to present a model that has been on my workbench for a couple of years, due to a missing part ( Landing gear wheel).

I decided that until i finish some of my older models, i will not start a new one, so this year i've dedicated myself to end / conclude this models.

This is one of them. Hobbyeasy 1:48 Scale P-47D . This is a very simplified but easy to build model and it's on my workbench since 2017.

Using a 3D resin set from eduard to fit the P-47D from miniart wheels, i proceed with it's conclusion.

The set it's easy to paint and assemble , and i adapt the wheel shaft with a 1mm metal rod and attach it to the landing gear. When i was satisfied with the fit, i then paint the wheels.

Also missing from the model was the pitot tube. i scratch a new one from a 0,6mm needle and some plasticard.

It's not on my standards, but i'm really happy to close this chapter.

Some work in progress photos , from 2017 and the final ones !

 

The Final ones!

thanks for watching and have a fantastic and healthy 2025!
