Thanks John. Not as such; after the Mustang mishap I went through a motivational issue with modelling, the Spitfire cleared the pipes so to speak and that is why there are a number of builds all of a sudden.

What no close up of the cockpit? Still looks cool though! Are you going to hang it? That's what I would do

Hi Joe

Another nice build this time of the oil' Airfix Spitfire. Just goes to show what can be done with the older kits.

Great stuff.

A great looking job Joe, just wish I could get my kits to look as good.

 

[Guest]

Nice one, Joe. It might be old but at least it gets the 'gull wing' right - unlike the Revell one I'll be starting shortly. Great choice of markings!

 

[Guest]

Nice one Joe
