Here's a little something I threw together in 3 weeks - desperately wanted to just finish a kit at the time.

A beauty, Nev.
Always love  Kartveli's masterpiece.
Terrific :)

Wonderful! :wub:
(and I do appreciate especially the mixing of red paint + silver paint, that was awful on my Mirage IIIC, both of you had succeeded, congratulations... :) )

Loved that kit so much I bought all they had in stock at the lhs...yours turned out superb !  Very nice panel shading/lining too, hard to carry that off with a metal finish.

Excellent build Nev! You did a great job on that NMF! I've enver seen crisper lines like the ones you achieved on the red and the anti-glare panel. I don't care if it's real or whiff, you can never have too many P-47S. This model is superb!

It's great having you back on the board with us, Nev!

Like I always say, a fuzzy digicam shot hides many a modelling sin ;)

You were not sinful, dear Nev, just imperfectly trying to do your best, like us... ;)

so what is wrong with banging out a kit quickly ?
that is why it is in kit form isn't it ?
it looks nice either way.
and I am in agreement ; Kartveli's masterpiece belongs on everone's display shelf
and you can't have too many of them  :D
