[colin m]

Ah, the Spitfire effect. Something that has had academics talking for years.

Very rare i do two kits on the trot which are the same genre, let alone same subject!

Nice one paul , -ooh rockets ! Would be nice to see a spit with them , not something you come across very often .

 

[PaulTRose]

Definatly not up to airfix standards

Less parts but dosnt go together as well..... Can see im going to have do some filler and sanding...... The styrene is a bit brittle too, having to be careful trimming and sanding

 

[adt70hk]

That's not many parts is it!! And you're right about the fit too!

Keep up the good work.

Coming along nicely Paul

 

[PaulTRose]

Primed and ready for some paint

Plan is to hairy brush paint it and see how it goes

 

[PaulTRose]

So ive used the right FS number paint but im not sure about it...... Does it look right to you guys?

 

[pjgtech]

I'm no paint expert mate, and I try not to get too anal about whether its perfect or not, so as long as it looks ok to me, then it'll be reet, as our Northern Brethren would say.... Looks fine to me.

 

[papa 695]

Nice work so far Paul, and the colour looks ok to me too.

 

[flyjoe180]

The green could possibly be a tad too olive, but it will darken under a varnish coat. Nice paint work.
