Very well done, nice!

One comment, I have not seen 5 hard points on a P-47 before, but it looks lethal that way as long as the runway is long enough.

Love the Jug, love the kit, love the scheme! Looks like a very rough runway, though Stick out tongue

Got two of the Razorbacks in my stash (four if you count the old Monogram kit and a 1:32 Trumpy) and I'm looking very forward to taking another crack at what is, IMO, one of the best model kits in existence.

If you build another, I HIGHLY recommend checking out Master's turned brass blast tubes. The kit tubes are extremely decent, way better than what's on the Monogram kit, but the Master tubes take it to another level.

I like that a lot! Certainly not a paint scheme I see every day! Good work.

Looks real tight from what I can see of the pics. Beer This is the razorback and I just ordered the Tammy P-47 bubble top, I like the looks of both, again very nice, more pics?
