That turned out well kilo! I am seeing fit issues with the windscreen but other than that it’s a super looking plane bud. Great to have you back!!

Well done, properly gooney looking. Italeri kits can have their challenges.

C-47s are awesome! This one looks sweet. Really nice work. I need to build myself a C47 at some point. Be a good one to have on the shelf

You have done a sweet job on your C-47. Appears as though you tackled said challenges and produced a good looking build. Well done.

Be a good one to have on the shelf I’ve wanted a C-47 for a long time, but I usually always built multi-engine aircraft in 1:72 scale because they take up less shelf space. As far as I can tell this Italeri kit is about the only 1:72 scale option I could find. |

I built this kit many years ago and I agree the fitment wasn't great. This looks like you handled it just fine though. I love the iconic invasion stripes you put on!
