My first build

Post by steveau29 »

Hi guys. I will be starting this wonderful model in the next couple of days. I haven't built a model in years and decided to build this one. I will also be adding some after market stuff. I will be using an airbrush for the first time with this model. I will also be watching Paul's wonderful tutorials on making, masking and painting a model to help me. And I would also like to have your comments as well to encourage me along.

Actually Paul. I have a question. The decals I'm using is for a P 47C. But the model is model D. If I putty the last two lines on the cowling on each side would that be alright for it to be a C model. Or do I have to change something else.
