I love this bird and you're doing a fine job on it.  What brand kit are you building ?  Mine was a 1/48 Hasegawa bubble top and it went together very well.

Looks like the Monogram kit to me.  Great job so far!  I have this and the bubbletop going at the same time.

Both of the Monogram Jugs are fine models, especially considering they were first released in 67 and 77 (Bubbletop and Razorback respectivly) and my only gripe at all with them is I wish the wing pylons were molded as seperate pieces, and not part of the wing.

Looks great PT,

I like the Jug, probably because it is so ugly, fat, ungainly and the fact at it  carried the highest kill to death ratio of any other WWII aircraft.

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.

Very well done!.  You need to get your hands on a Tamiya Jug.....pure modeling bliss in every sense of the word...

PT, You did such an excellent job on the Revell/Monogram kit, ever think of the Tamiya 1/48th family? I'm a big 47 fan{56th F.G. is my favorite} and I think your model came out perfect all- around. Good luck with all your future builds. - Bob
