Again I seek help from you and your extensive library.

Since my original plane that I planned to do was too similar to the default, I am thinking of doing this one.

I was wondering if you had any real pictures or profiles of this particular bird?

P-47N-1-RE(s/n 44-88211) flown by 2nd Lt. Oscar F. Perdomo of the 464th FS, 507th FG, Ie shima , July 1945.



Anything will be much appreciated!

Last one for now, I promise!!

Do you happen to have any unique P-47Ns?  Everything I can find is just plain bare metal with a yellow tail and some noseart. (pretty much, there are a few exceptions with a blue tail)

Again, anything and everything is very much appreciated. :)

There just not many P47N combat units I'm afraid.  And it appears Greebo has covered em all

How bout this one on a D40?

Hmm... I'll see how the two compare.  Thanks!
