1/32 Supermarine spitfire MK.1XC Tamiya

[chameleon 2009]

Hi every one just finished this build for a client, they wanted the same markings and very little weathering, so as is depicts the twin seater based at big hill, to which they had just been up in and flown, enjoy.

I agree with you Pollux it looks back to front as the angled edge meets the front of the cockpit glass and straight fits into the rear radio part of canopy eg given

Nice one Mike it's funny to see how models differ slightly manufacturer to manufacturer.


I didn't include the antenna wire when I did mine and I really wanted to but I read that it was integrated into the mast on the mk. IXc, it would be interesting to find out if anyone one has any views on this.


Lovely build Mike and love the pilot


Cheers
