Miniart P-47N next

[JohnB]

Miniart has several P-47 kits available and I plan to build several starting with this "N". 🙂

They are the I think the nicest kit out there for the P-47 now they take a little longer to build but never-less Nice.

I agree Kevin. Nice kits but a bit fiddly at times! 🙂

[JohnB]

Making progress. Those little 1/48 parts can be a real 🫤 PITA to put in place.

About ready to start painting. 🙂

Thanks Kevin. I think the rivet details are a bit over done which really shows up with the natural metal finish. Just have to live with it. 🙂

great finish, but question about the cowling, I had a hell of a time building up the cowling, I couldn't get the seam straight.  Did you have that problem

Thanks. It was quite fiddly but I finally got it all "right". A one piece cowling would have been much better.

Done a RFI.

Ok now, this was really fast, so fast that I completely missed out on your build John.  Gonna check the glamour shots.

Cheers
