Great finish. I never knew they used Thunderbolts for rescue work.

Thats a beaut job on that David, nicely done. In spite of your comments on the decal sizing, I've added this sheet to my wish list, there are some awesome schemes in it, perfeck for some Hobby Boss p-47s.

need to fix the intake splitter on them too. :(

The model is excellent on its own but the addition of the smoke canisters and the rafts really puts this one over the top. BRAVO!!!!
