Illustrations were created by Janusz Swiatlon. All aircraft feature sexy nose art which is rarely seen on Supermarine Spitfires. For the very first time, artwork and markings of MT841 are correctly reproduced in decal form. This 1/32 scale set is available directly from the manufacturer: https://exito.site/en_GB/p/EXITO-DECALS-ED32003-132-Sexy-Spitfires-Supermarine-Spitfire-LF-Mk-Vb-VIII-IXe/56657

Illustrations were created by Janusz Swiatlon and Anders Hjortsberg. The markings for Ehrler’s ‘Emil’ and G-6 of ‘Bazi’ Weiß have never been reproduced in decal form before, whilst Gollob’s Bf 109 F-4 trop did not receive enough attention from other manufacturers. This 1/32 set is available directly from the manufacturer: https://exito.site/en_GB/p/EXITO-DECALS-ED32010-132-Eastern-Front-Fighters/56658
