    Airfix 1/48 Spitfire Mk. Vb

    Morning All, Finished this one off this morning. It's an excellent kit and great fun to build. Thanks for the encouragement and advice along the way.

    Here she is.

    The paintwork is excellent Jason!!

    I say it again, the colour tone is magnificent, as the subtle weathering as well

      Polux has stolen my words! That's an excellent build Jason, lovely paint that looks well faded & just the right amount of weathering.

          Superb build Jason, you should be very proud of this one. Unique paint scheme too, not often seen on model subjects. I like the period looking photos, very convincing.

                  Jason, I really like this build. I am really surprised with the cannons. The detail there is not bad at all. Was that Aftermarket or Airfix's? If it was Airfix's, that means their kits are getting better.

                        That's a really nice build, the pictures keep drawing me back to look again and again.

                          Lovely weathering job and realistic finishes. I don't remember seeing a brown/grey camouflage before so something a bit different as well. I really like the under surfaces.

                          The period shots work well but if you got the camera right down to ground level they would look even more convincing.

                              That is a magnificent Spitfire! Can't really add much to what has already been said but agree that the finish and weathering are both top drawer. Gong for sure!

                              Cheers
