decals have been ordered from Callie Graphics and I'll probably use some of the Guillow's sheet as well

going with the Hun Hunter XVI on this one

Nice work. Built the model years ago as an rc model. Great flyer. I also built the small Sterling that requires massive rework so as to not look like a ball bat. :D Flies well too

They look good in silver. Here's the small Sterling P47
Seems the file must be too large to load

The Hun Hunter is a nice color scheme that looks great on the P-47

thank you for your encouragement, Scott - the project was involved and took some time to complete.
I also have the Guillow 1000 series Corsair F4u and the Dc-3 here yet to build.

anyone who wants to see the construction of this model can go to Heywood Planes on YT and see several of my builds including this one
