Just a preview of the next release. This is a P-47C-2 Thunderbolt, the very first mark to be shipped to England to equip the fledgling 8th Air force. It was field upgraded to C-5 standard with the addition of belly shackles to carry a 75 gallon drop tank.
I still have some tweaking, some painting detail to do, weathering in the cockpit, the 2D panel to paint, and the VC instrumentation (as you can see), some air file and .dp tweaks etc. I'm pleased with how it is turning out though. So, I thought I'd share how it is coming along and build a little anticipation.
I'll do a couple examples of early D-2 to D-22 marks next. All the existing razorback models are the later mark 23 and on so there's to be no duplication.
