discussion Peterairfix's Spitfire Mk.Ia starter kit build

[peterairfix]

As I will be taking part in the second part of this GB and it's an easy kit to find this is my second victim.
And it doesn't look too bad a kit a lot better than I am used to.
As usual it has those paints and glue so let's see what I can do.

Hi Peter
Watching with interest. Looks a decent kit. I think it is one of Airfix's newer kits - around 2010 maybe.

I have got some parts and cockpit side walls painted and at the moment everything needs two coat.

First two coats of paint on one more should do it.

It is a nice little kit, my daughter bought me one as a joke Father’s Day present a few years ago. I just cut the header card off and binned it, then made the kit...it went together like a dream.....I think I did the black and white undersides....

Hi Peter
Looking good. One or two more thinned coats should do it without clogging up the detail.

Got my spitfire for the next part of the group build just awaiting my seatbelts.
