Curt B Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 (edited) Hey All, I'm working on my 1/48 MiniArt P-47D, and i would like to display at least one wing's gun compartment hatches open. Frankly, i've never done a model before where the guns and ammunition have been on display, and i was wondering if anyone knows where some good images, preferably in color, exist for what a combat P-47D gun compartment would have looked like. i'd be happy with such images of any WWII gun compartment on nanny aircraft type, as I'm not really sure how to tackle this. Even photos of other builds that have the right feels would be fine. Can anyone help me? Edited August 6 by Curt B Quote Link to post Share on other sites
barkin mad Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 This probably will help.........pretty much the same colour as used in the wheel bays I think. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I’m usually better than that, so thanks for getting mecehstni wanted!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
