Thunderbolt GB 2016

I think I've gathered all the paint needed to do the Thunderbolt.  I'm going to try an airbrush camo scheme on it.  We'll see how it works out.  I may just have to actually learn how to use my airbrush.  I just need to learn how to adjust it for different spray patterns.

Count me in with a Revell A10 Thunderbolt.    First time being a part of a group build, should be fun.

 

They usually are a lot of fun and you get to learn a lot at the same time

great to have you aboard...I'll get you added to the roster!!

I'd like to join in on this. I have a Testors (yes Testors) 1/48 P-47D thats been on the shelf for 2 decades or so. I bought it off ebay i believe. It even came with resin for the cockpit and guns.

 

Glad you decided to dust it off and join us Axemanwb I look forward to seeing it come together!

Great! Roster is updated with your entry Tony.

Hi Rooster,

I think that Ford made a Ford Fairlane Thunderbolt back in the 1st half of the 60s. I have a Revell kit of it, but I'm not going to build it this time.

I'll go for an Academy 1/72 P-47D please.

I like the 2nd badge.

Cheers

Tony

Hmmm, What about P-38 Ligtning? Thunder and lightning go hand in hand you know...

 

Sorry cbaltrin, I think we are going to stick with things named/nicknamed "thunderbolt" for this build. I do want to build a P-38 sometime so maybe a lightning GB is in the future...

I've got the Roster updated...starting to fill out nicely

You can put me in with Tamiya's J2M in 1/48.

I'm in with the 1/32 Hasegawa Bubbletop, a replica of my Dad's plane from WWII. He flew with the 365th Fighter Bomber Group of the Ninth Air Force. the "H*** Hawks".

The kit is started, but well shy of joining the fuse. I'll get some pics up soon. I'm also likin' the 2nd badge - cool Heritage Flight photo!

I think I shall start with the Academy A-10A in 1/72.  If time allows, there is a chocolate brown Cuban offering on Aztec's Juicy Jugs that I've been contemplating since I got the sheet.

Thunderjet, Thunderchief and of course the Thunderbolt.

I use paint.net, but i alwyas struggle to remeber how to do the effects. I might give the word art a try.

Bish

Count me in Academy 1/72nd P-47D. As for the badge, i would say the last one.

Got you down Bish. I made them right in Microsoft word. I found a pic I like and just added Word Art. Anyone else use something different?
