Title: Israeli P-47
Post by: braincells37 on July 20, 2012, 01:38:05 PM

Going through some old photo files I found this. Built it years ago for the April Fools edition of Internet Modeler. Later that year I took it to the IPMS nationals. Unfortunately, the head judge was on to me and he moved it to "hypothetical". Oh well. It's the Revell 72nd scale kit - a real beauty - and the last 72nd kit I built.

The Israelis bought 25 F-47Ds fromMexico in 1948, but the US embargoed them.

Beautiful model.
