discussion Bowcat's 1/48 Supermarine Spitfire Mk VB

[Mr Bowcat]

Hi guys,

I finally finished this build, which was started in March. It spent a long time on a shelf before I finished the last odds and sods.

This was my first aircraft build and didn't go great, I had particular problems with the decals.

Really nice, I love the tamiya 1/48th kits, except the old Zeroes, they are well past their sell-by date. New ones on the horizon though!

Looks pretty good to me, fantastic first aeroplane build. Tamiya decal issues, not entirely unexpected but glad you managed to sort it out and finish your Spitfire.

 

[Mr Bowcat]

Cheers gents.
