cngaero Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 An excellent Spitfire with a very nice "used" finish. I really like the work you've done with the upper wing roundels. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggu Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I really like the base you used as well..... you weathering talents are awesome, certainly not over done, looks battle worn...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire31 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 She looks really excellent and the weathering, to my eyes, look just right for a machine that's seen some serious use. Only nitpick would be the yellow prop tips that appear at least twice as big as regulations stipulated. According to the one and only, sadly missed, Edgar Brooks: "4" (101.6mm) = 1/18" (1.41mm) in 1/72, 1/12" (2.12mm) in 1/48, 1/8" (3.175mm) in 1/32, 1/6" (4.23mm) in 1/24." The thread is here: Beautiful modelling! Kind regards, Joachim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I shall adjust the tip colour length, should be easy with black on yellow. Again thanks for the tip(s)... Joss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
