setting the fuel tank - decals, stencils and panel lines are done and the bird has a couple of clear semi-gloss coats on it to seal the deal |

Truth be told : The markings for this airplane are incorrect. I sent a picture of the P-47D Bubbletop to Callie when I placed my order, but these markings are for the Razorback. |

The Hun Hunter XIV is the Razorback and Hun Hunter XVI is the Bubbletop. I didnt notice it until after she had shipped the artwork. I just went ahead and used them. Not too many people can read Roman numerals anyway lol |

I can,:),k but who knows the difference (except you just told every body), its a great looking, nicely done model. |

Thank you, Don - I am very happy with the results, I just thought it was funny how I ended up with decals for the Razorback version of the P-47 which is what I would have built had I the skills to make a canopy for it. It only seemed right to just go ahead and use them on my bubbletop Jug. |

Canopies arent that hard. Even I can do it. Look at the Hellcat. |

Ican tell you how to do it, if you want. |

I appreciate that offer Don, there are plenty of YT videos on the subject. A year ago I would have said I dont do this often enough to go to the trouble of bothering with it. As of today I still feel that way. |
