This P47 Jet is part of the new AAAF, Anglo-American Air Force made up of WW2 Air Aces, formed to combat the Luft46 threat  ;D

Looks good! That's an enormous sharkmouth. May I ask what the line of holes are on the rear fuselage?
Some of my models can be found on my Flickr album >>>HERE<<<

thanks pyro

the shark mouth is a spare from a 1/32nd scale Tomahawk  ;D

& the holes are damage from enemy canon fire  ;D  :thumbsup:

But of course being a Thunderbolt, even a derivative one, the pilot dodged around inside and they missed him....... :)
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Crikey!  :o That's the mother of all shark mouths!  :drink:

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Love the oversized shark's mouth----makes me think of Venom.

I used to make cannon holes in my models too.....hmmm....it's been too long.

PR  ......I accidentally damaged the decal so I decided to make a feature of it with some good old fashioned canon damage  ;D :thumbsup:  ....also I found the shark eyes, now added  ;D

Well done, Vostoc! The shark's mouth and battle damage are icing on the cake! While there is a "Jet P-47" kit, I like your version better.

Nice enrichment of yours to the P-47-jet family (featured in a Reichdreams leaflet if I remember correctly). Thanks! :thumbsup:
