Very much the same as the 'N'. Decals done (including the stencils), still need to get the exhaust plumes on before I can start the final construction. This one will be 'bombed up' but you'll see more about that anon.
Added a bit more in the way of leaks and smears to this, but the principal is the same.
Comments, questions and outrage all welcomed :dude

Well, I have mentioned here previously that I usually build/finish a project at glacier-like speed and here's the proof, started last winter (here in NZ), and finished as we approach the middle of our summer. Hun Hunter came back to the bench because I scr*w*d-up the Seahawk, and there's absolutely no prizes for guessing which other 'self queen' came back with it !!
As ever I'm happy to take all questions, comments and criticism. Thanks for taking the time to look.

Great job Ian 
Like how you pulled other items in to finish it out.

Very nicely finished P-47
I think the wheel wells should probably be zinc chromate though.
