  "1/48 Academy P-47D Thunderbolt"

  This is my 1/48 Academy P-47D Thunderbolt finished in self adhesive Bare Metal Foil. The kit went together with no major problems. The only additions were a resin seat, aluminum tubing for the guns and superscale decals.

  The one problem with the kit are the guns. They are too small (under-scaled) for the bay and the amo belts just end at the side edge of the bay. I tried to hide this by positioning the panel in a way that covers most of the under-scaled gun problem.

  I finished the model using self adhesive Bare Metal Foil. Some areas of the airframe were tricky to get the foil to conform, so I had to make smaller pieces to cover these areas. Doing a model in foil is not that hard, just time consuming. Patience with this stuff is a must!

  I enjoyed building this kit and I think it turned out great!
