It's very rarely I buy 2 of the same models, but I picked the grey one up at a good discount, then I spotted the red one at even better discount.

The aerobatic model is moulded in a bright red styrene - not that good, seeing as the bottom of the fuselage is white. The other is normal grey plastic. I might decide to finish both as trainers, as there seems to be sufficient decals, and a lot of underwing stores to fill both aircraft - that red/white looks worse, the more I look at it.
Both the models are very cleanly moulded with some very delicate parts, and a LOT of detail. The assembly looks pretty complicated, with full intake trunkings, although how much will be visible isn't clear, I'll have to study the parts & the instructions a bit more ( a lot more actually )

Postie delivered these from the big 'H' this afternoon...

Thought I'd try a canopy mask on the 109 I'm currently building after struggling a bit on the Hurricane and teed up my next couple of projects at the same time. I'm hoping the book proves useful, though whether it ends up providing inspiration or feelings of inadequacy remains to be seen....

You could always just paint the grey one as the red/white and vice versa if they are the same

You could swap the colours and decals: painting grey plastic red and white is probably going to be easier than painting white on the red plastic, as you say. I quite like the look of the red plane, TBH.

Having typed that, I see @SimonT just suggested the same thing :)
 
Continuing my mission to relieve all the local charity shops of any kits they've had donated:
