P47D_C1 FAB WWII (Academy 1/72)

A few people know that Brazilian troops fought shoulder to shoulder with the Allies in Italy against the Axis during World War II.
Even fewer know that Brazilian pilots formed a squadron, the 1st Brazilian Squadron attached to the 350FG.
They flew the powerful P47D Thunderbolts.
I've used the good Academy kit with FCM decals to represent a plane flown by Cap. Fortunato. He was the creator of the distinctive armed ostrich painted on the port side of the motor cowling.







Cheers!

BAe HAWK RAAF (Italeri 1/72)

Here are the photos for my RAAF Hawk.
The kit is the excellent Italeri in 1/72nd scale.
The kit represents the demonstration aircraft so I need to make some changes to depict a current model. The decals are from Aussie Decals and I had a really hard time trying to put them in place since they were cracking and falling to pieces, not happy at all!




All colours were Tamiya Acrylics.
Cheers
