discussion Completed Tamiya 1/48 Spitfire.

[john i am]

Hi folks another great kit from Tamiya highly recommended. Nice kit with good details and fitted really well. But I had a lot of problems with it all of my own making to be honest. I was getting scared to pick it up at one stage. To kind of put into prospective for those that knew him I'd liken it to giving Frank Spencer a pot of glue and some paints. I'm so happy that I've just laid down that last decal so I can put it on a shelf never to be touched again. Anyway here she is and I hope you like her.
Cheers John

A Frank Spencer building moment - ohhh, Frank. Yes I'm old enough.
I don't know about your troubles, but the end result looks great. A splendid Spitfire indeed.
