| Here are some poor pics of the re-paint I did of Saucy Susie. I wanted another green P-47 bubbletop in the collection to go with my Lanowski one. So I got some decals from Super Scale International for Eileen of the 84th FS/78th FG. I may have buggered up the codes on the right side, but I couldn't find any pics of that side. So I went with what I'd do. Also, the decal set did not come with the invasion stripes, so this is Eileen as she looked prior to D-Day. - Shawn | |||||||||||||

| Re: Repaint DML Saucy Susie
Well after the long process of getting that pink off the cowl. I had to repaint it white, then applied the kit supplied black checkers. Truth be told, its an ugly fit on the bottom. But hey who is looking? - Shawn | ||||||||||||||

| Re: Repaint DML Saucy Susie Great looking plane! If only DM would produce this scheme for the less talented among us. But please, no open cowl flaps! | |||||||||||||

| Re: Repaint DML Saucy Susie Appreciate the comments guys. And by no means am I an expert on converting these bad boys. The paint jobs aren't the greatest, nor are the color matches. But it gives me a better looking bird than Saucy Susie. I'm also converting the blue E2-S Mustang into "Old Crow". Pictures of that will be up soon If I don't get the boot for another discussion. - Shawn | |||||||||||||

| Re: Repaint DML Saucy Susie Very nice paint job, Shawn. Frank Oiler's mount is my favorite scheme. He had this scheme on his previous "razorback" P-47 as well. I've been planning to do this scheme on a spare MB P-47 for awhile now but I just haven't gotten around to it yet. Maybe one of these days... | |||||||||||||

| Well done, Shawn! It's too bad Dragon or Corgi never gave us this one - I'd have found room for it. | |||||||||||||
