Thanks John! Very glad that you like how she turned out.

As I mentioned, it was my go to option after all the trouble with the decals and masking. :)

Excellent build!  I agree with everything that everyone else has said, it's awesome.  Love it in the captured German markings.  For your first NMF it turned out very well.(I'm too nervous to attempt my first NMF) Always thought that the P-47 and the Corsair were huge menacing machines when they were compared to the Zero,Me-109,Spitfire, and the P-51.

Thanks Tom! Glad that you like how she turned out. 

The "what if" scenario was the go to option after the mishap with the clear coat and decals. It did the job to some extent. :)

I believe you were trying to get a well weathered/tired warbird. To that end you were very successful. Congrats on a very fine build.

Stay Safe.

 

Thanks Jim! Appreciated!

Yeah, in the end I ended up with a bit more weathering than I intended after the hiccup with the clear coat and the decals. That's where I had to make adjustments and turn it into a "what if" scenario. :)

Hell I think it turned out damn good.  This hobby presents a lifetime of learning, getting better, and trial and error.

 

 

 

 

I'm with wp!! All those struggles you were talking about were worth it.

Thank tou Wpwar! Appreciated.

Yeah, I am kind of practicing to shift my focus on the process itself more than on the end result. More fun that way. :)
