    1/72 Airfix Spitfire Mk. Vb

    Perhaps predictably it’s Spitfire time!
    I’ve honed my airbrush skills a little and am happy so far with the job. Tried to be a little more patient with masking on canopies and not make the mistakes I made on the last 109. So far so good.Click image for larger version

    Hi Russell
    An iconic aircraft. Looking good. Nice cockpit and the paintjob is neat.

              Looking nice. When I see a Spitfire being built, I can hear the thing.......Who doesn't like a Spitfire.

                Such a nice sound too. I’m in Sussex and there’s a spit that does circuits in the summer, the one with the d-day markings and it’s so evocative. Obviously I wasn’t around in the 40s but somehow it’s still nostalgic to me.
