Chuck, Even though I agree your F-15 deserved a gold! I’d like to think nonetheless, my F-15 Ra’am was a worthy opponent. My Fw-190 placed silver next to your Spitfire, so I guess that makes us even.

JUST AN FYI..... Best way to reduce the seam between wings and fuselage from previous experience is. 1) Do what you did, mask the edges around the seam and lay the putty down, sand it. 2) Upon sanding it, mask it again, spray tamiya primer a few thick layers, and sand it over the primer, and polish. From my experience on the F 15's that joint usually takes lots of putty, and as we know putty shrinks a little and absorbs some paint. There is no panel line in that area on the real F 15. The primer provides an additional layer of filling, which covers up the shrinking of the putty, and allows th

add the top wings to the fuselage first, to avoid a major seam, and after carefully slide the bottom pieces of the wing....

Try looking into AMT/ESCI kit, from what I know it is miles ahead of Italeri, and I'm not sure how it compares with academy. Cheers,
