Tworrs Tamiya 1/48 Supermarine Spitfire MkI

[Tworrs]

Here is my completed Spitfire, and my first attempt at full weathering of a model.
I'm not totally unhappy with the result, and have learned a lot in the process.
I didn't do a build thread, just in case I cocked it up completely :smiling3:
C&C welcome.
Cheers

Nice job Gary. I do like a weathered bird, but as you know, it's something that takes quite a bit of practice. Sometimes I think I've got it right, other times I know I haven't !

Looks good Garry. Soot streaming from the guns is effective.

[Caustik Filth]

Nailed it I reckon Garry !

Tell me about it Colin, I have been on a steep learning curve.

Thanks Tim, I couldn't find a representation for real so I had to imagine what it would look like.

Thank you Rob, kind of you to say.

It certainly does Steve, it was pretty simple to build.

Very nice work Gary, you seem to be getting the hang of weathering, so easy to go over the top with it. A little is often enough

Thank you so much Ian, as this is my first attempt at full weathering I have no idea what just enough, or too much, really is. Or is it just in the eye of the beholder?
Honestly does this look a little OTT to you?
