Well I have to admit that I have been a pretty poor member of this build. I signed up for it during last school year and am just now really getting into it. Originally I signed up for a p-47n and a p-51d, then mistakenly signed the p-51 up for the mustang ranch (not knowing that it was poor form to double up a build), so I will probably just be calling the p-47 part of this build.
Anyway, I used an aires cockpit and got the fuselage closed and wings and stabilizers put together and cleaned up this weekend (except for the part that holds the gun barrels - I'm trying to locate some perfectly sized hypodermic needles to replace the plastic ones first). I haven't glued the wings/stab. to the fuselage yet and it looks like some pretty good amounts of filler will be needed for that. I don't have any metal finish progress to show yet, but maybe I'll get a cockpit shot up in the next few days.
Hope everyone else's build is going well, Leon
