XP-3647 Hawkerbolt

I know this is my third model on the workbench, but on order are my paint (to finish the p61 Black Spider) and puty (to continue the Triplex-Goblin). So…
I found the MPM 1/72 XP-47H (most beautiful of all the P-47s) kit box: empty except stabilizers… while the Frog 1/72 P-47D with it (to be built together as a half-pretty twin-plane) was there. Inside the P-47D box was also a completely forgotten Revell 1/72 Hawk-75/P-36 kitbox, complete (to be built with a P-40C beauty as a half-pretty twin-plane).
Well, the XP-47H having disappeared, and as I will not buy a P-40 anymore, remain only: P-36 and P-47D. So I will combine them into a different twin-plane: P-3647 Hawk-Thunder-bolt, shortened as Hawkerbolt.

This will not be a huge ugly twin-radial with giant span but a tiny streamlined glider, hardly butcherized. Truncation has started on the P-47 part…

She had been an ugly child, fat big-nose aircraft nicknamed "Thunderbolt P-47D" in the 1940s (famous movie-star).
Then, growing teenager, she became a pretty glider-girl nicknamed "Useinbolt P-47W" winning an olympic medal of beauty in 2008 (picture below).
Alas, then, she married the crazy Hawk-75 guy and will become a weird helicopter XP-3647 nicknamed Hawkerbolt P-3647, going to psychiatric hospital late in 2010 (pictures later)

Your forgetting the time that it was a TV star in the early to mid 70's "Berny the Bolt"

Olah Pablo... don't turn crazy, I was joking: I must build this couple before taking pictures of it...
And truncating, making solid again, is a long work, you know it... I use just Humbrol filler, someday I will try your Milliput, yes.

With paint help, it now looks like a single (asymmetric) twin-plane (before being turned into a crazy helicopter - soon)...
