Hi Steve. Well the Revell's kit is a D30. Kokomo is a D25. They have a little big difference: the landing light under the left wing! If you saw the Tamiya's P47D and a Revell's one you will see what i'm talking... So this project is dead for a moment... Thanks guys. Marcelo

So guys thanks for all. But can i build the "kokomo" with a Revell's kit? Marcelo

Thanks for the replay. So, this P47 has some particularities: the color that tamiya manual show us is a mix of xf4 and xf5. Can i paint it with OD? Many profiles shows this diferent green tone. No bombs and under wings pylons, correct? And a little red dot in the wheel center. Am i correct? MArcelo

Hi guys. Well, another day another kit. This time i have a P47D by Revell, 1/72. But i don't want to use the kit's decals: balls out and the other version that i don't remember now. So, i asked a friend and he gave to me a set from Tamiya's P47D: Kokomo! When i start a little search in the web about this plane, i saw somethings tha i really don't understand: 1 - this particular plane have only 6 machine guns? 2 - had or had not the wings pylons under the wings? Carring or not carring bombs? Thanks a lot. Marcelo

Hi guys. Well i know that G12 is a converted G6 or G4 etc. Well, the Academy kit is very cheap. Can i use this kit with a Hi_Tech resin part to convert the G6 in a G12? Does anyone knows the Hi-tech resin parts site? Thanks. Marcelo

Hi guys. Well another question about BF-109. How to convert a 109G in a G12? "From early 1944 a number of G-2s, G-3s, G-4s and G-6s were converted to two seat trainers, known as the G-12. An instructor's cockpit was added behind the original cockpit" from Wikipedia. Well, what is the best kit to do this convertion? An academy 109G6 is the best choice? Thanks guys. Marcelo
-
Well, so far so good... We have the top 109: Finemolds, and the simple mortals: Academy and Revell. Well Academy's 109 build the versions: G-5 and G-6. Revell's ones build (G-14, G-14AS, G-10, G-6AS). So what do i need to correct these models? Aftermarket accessories! Thanks Marcelo

So the Acedemy canopi or even hasegawa's one are too narrow??? It's a bad news... Once time ago, i was building a Me262, revell. The canopi is terrible, so a friend of mine give to me a new canopi from hasegawa and fits ok....If doesn't works i'll buy a squandro one. Thanks a lot, MArcelo PS: Mikester do you have any photos of your 109G? Sites?
-
Hi guys. Thanks for all replies. Well let me see somtehing: 1 - i agree 100% with you Chuck and Mikester. This revell's kit have some problem with spinner and propoller. But i didn't know the canopi problem. 2 - get some finemold is the solution but here where i am this is very difficult. The revell is a great solution! I'm not a purist; 3 - as steve N write: quickboost have a set of resin to build a correct spinner and props. The canopi i'll try with some friend or buy a Academy 109G. What do you think now? Am i right?!? Marcelo

Hi guys. I'm searching for another 109 and i saw a Messerschmitt BF-109 G-10 - 1/72 Revell 04160. Is this a good kit? Thanks a lot. Marcelo

Hi Greg. I read all this topic and bring back the main subject, i have some questions to do, ok?!? 1 - For P51 with Allison engine, model A and A36 Apache, the wings panel lines will be filled too? 2 - Wings of RAF Mustangs follow the same procedure? 3 - P51B and C, same questions!
