Just curious if anyone is working on a bare metal P47-d11?

I know there are some fun ones out there just waiting to be skinned...
But I'll leave it to the masters to find one worth doing

Sweet... I can't wait.

And I'm kinda hoping someone is going to be doing Hun Hunter... she's a classic.

Hun Hunter flew with the 12th USAAF in the 57th Fighter Group... I just can't be sure which squadron (There were 3 in the group i believe... 64th, 65th, and 66th)

I'll put it to the community...does anyone out there know?

Here ya go.

Turns out I had a decal sheet and another profile from a 1/48th scale Jug I hadn't built yet. I think the yellow in the decal sheet is better then the first profile's yellow and more accurate as is the 65th FS badge on the nose

That's looking great rogerdee!
The only thing that i see that appears a little off (and this is a nit pick) but H in Hun looks like it should be ilalicized.

WOOOOT!!!! Man I'm excited!

Yeah looks like all the lettering should be italicized, beautiful work at any rate Roger.

That's confusing because some of them have the lettering looking vertical and some have it with a slight slant.

yep thats what threw me,although one is a plane done to look like huin hunter for a museum.
All the photos of the real aircraft the writing looks straight to me?
