eng Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Good Evening, I thought I had posted pics of this build already but I haven't. Latest release of the Airfix 1/72 Mk.1 Spit that I had originally started to hand paint about 5 years before it hit the skids and ended up on the shelf o' doom! For whatever reason I ressurected it a few weeks ago, rubbed it back a bit with a worn Scotchbrite pad and re-sprayed it using Tamiya paints (I adore spraying these, a real pleasure to work with!). Markings are out of the box and the weathering is pastels. Photo's were from my iPhone and I think I've inadvertently had one of the effects selected at the time but here you go anyway - Thanks for looking, all feedback, good and bad welcome, Eng 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bedders Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Great Spitfire Eng, with a really nice finish and I love the in-flight pose with base. Almost every time I see one of these Airfix Mk Is built up, I want to do another one myself, and you've certainly made that happen again!
