    I've managed to spray the red surround for the gas patch this morning and then unmask the whole thing.

    I'm happy with the yucky yellow/green colour I mixed up for it.



    Cheers

      That's a nice yellow/green yucky colour Steve. Not long before this ones completed.

          Looking superb Steve. Great paint work (as always) and nice detail with the gas patch.

          Cheers

              Superb painting as usual, plus I'm learning more since I'm reading your posts than in my life before.

                I always try to use my models as a means of learning as much as I can about the real aircraft and men who flew them. I'm certainly happy if I can pass anything on to anyone else.

                There is a story behind this Spitfire which I will tell when I finally get it finished. I've started to apply the decals today (and a start on wing root weathering).



                I have also managed to find an online copy of the 92 Squadron Operations Record Book (ORB) or Form 540, which covers the period in question. I will also post a link to it for those interested.

                Cheers
