Good morning Wez

 I must admit that I won't start tomorrow as I would like to take part in the Made In Britain II Gb with a Eduard Spitfire mk IX or Mk XVI or both I dont' know yet ..

Patrice,

 

At your prolific production rate I wouldn't have any concerns, however, at my glacial production rate I'm already worried!

Thank you Wez but I must say that during the next summer months, my "prolific production rate" will, unfortunately, tend to slow down due to a few days of vacation in the family house of Dordogne that I will occupy with some maintenance work of the house and garden .

The detail on the panel looks good Patrice.

Good morning Trojan Thunder

 I usually use PE parts for the instrument panel in the models (in 1/72 scale ) that I build and for this one in 1/48 it was almost compulsory as I will let the canopy opened ..

 

Regards

Patrice

Progressing nicely Partice, there is so much more detail in the cockpit than my Heller kit. The detail in yours looks great.

 

Good morning Ray

 Thank you for your comment .

The cockpit and seat provided by HB are quite simple all the instruments are represented by decals that is why I decided to use an Eduard set to improve the cockpit ..

 

Best regards

Patrice
