Bigasshammm Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Got a box of paint today from scale hobbyist so I should be able to get started next week. Going out of town for the weekend. I also picked up another set of pe for it to go with the small set the kit comes with. I briefly toyed with getting the Brassin engine but I don't want to have to build a base for it to sit on with the cowls off so I saved my money. Kit is the eduard MkVIII profipack. See if this auto guy can remember how to build an aeroplane! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ridinshotgun Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 OK I am in on this. Going to go with a Tamiya Vb with some watermark decals for John Kent's spit while flying in the Polish Wing. Now I just have to decide on what details to go with. I am leaning towards the ultracast flight surfaces, seat and exhausts. Or go in the direction of the eduard photo etch with the ultracast surfaces and exhaust. Decisions, decisions decisions. Also have to order up a few more paint colors.

nickdanger Posted May 1, 2016 Author Share Posted May 1, 2016 Round two: Revell 1/32 Mk II While I love the lines of the Mk II, I've never liked the green and brown camo so this one will be an in-flight build with a what-if paint scheme. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Stefan buysse Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Hi, Yes, it's insanely late in the GB and the 2 Tamiya Spitfires aren't finished yet. But now that I'm on a roll (still the rest of this week off) here's a Spitfire that I have collected a lot of upgrades for. An Airfix Spitfire Mk 24 with Barracudacast carburetor intake and 5-blade prop, Master cannons, Quickboost cowling and exhausts and Mark I decals. I'll build VN492 of the Royal Hong Kong Auxiliary Air Force in 1953.Spitfire F24 by StefanBuysse, on Flickr Cheers, Stefan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
