Tamiya 1:72 P-47D 'Razorback' Crash Diorama

Post by FokkerDXXI »

Hi all,

I made a small diorama featuring a crashed P-47D (Tamiya, 1:72). It is based on an actual
Thunderbolt that crashed in my hometown in 1944. I made this model specifically for a video about this event. I used the model for some special effects/green screen footage. I hope you all like it!





and the video:

Its DUTCH, not DEUTSCH!!!

Very nice idea with the model build and video showing the history of the plane and pilot. Very good work with the green screen and you did a very good job narrating the story. It was quite entertaining.

Thank you for sharing your video, it’s a really interesting story and nice to get an insight and some local knowledge. These individual stories about everyday people helping in any way they could are inspirational.

I somehow missed this thread earlier, but just enjoyed watching the film now with my morning coffee!

Great story, great video presentation, and great model of the P-47 razorback!

I really enjoyed it.
