1:18 P-47 Gabreski custom, new pics w/ more P-47 customs.

Post by pokeyjtc » Sun Oct 12, 2008 11:35 am

Here's my latest P-47D custom. I got tired of waiting for 21st Cenutry toys to do it, so I did my own 'Gabby' custom. Enjoy the pics.

Thanks for the comments guys. I took a couple more pics of the Gabby with my other P-47 customs I have done. Here's the group photos of Gabby, Pengie IV, Tarheel Hal, and Big Ass Bird.

Great collection of custom P-47s. I think I like Gabby best.

Nice work! Certainly a paint scheme that 21c needs to make.

Awesome P-47's Pokey. I have been struggling with what scheme I want to do on my bubbletop custom. You have covered a couple of my choices in your photos and seeing them makes me want to do it more....

I dunno, maybe I will do something different? Yours look fantastic and I am afraid I would not do the the justice that you have!
