Title: 2 blue 47Ns submitted

Just a heads up. I waited a while took a look at the skins, made a tweak or two (minor stuff) checked the threads (no additional comments) so I submitted them both.

That's exactly what inspired me. If you find any other non-yellow Ns let me know!

no that's a 47 M of the 56th FG.

not the right model i'm afraid :)

the N's were mainly used in the pacific, and there were pretty much all bare metal.

That blue/blue or blue/black patterns (like that) were reserved only for P47Ms. They were pretty rare and specialized, and Skuzzy or Pyro or whomever has mentioned "No P47M skins" -- so can't use it.

EDIT: It's a P47N, but it's painted up as a P47M, probably a restored bird in modern times. Wouldn't be a historical paint job
