With Little H building her Spitfire, I will be keeping her company by building a 1/144 Eduard Spitfire. Just need to fit this around the Monaco GP and work on Monday.

Little H is back this year and will be building an Airfix Spitfire. Colours/ decorations tbc.

Canopy cover made from Tamiya tape and painted in Hum 31. Looks exactly like the ones we used when road moving them. Had a little accident while doing it, dropped the model and the scalpel, automatically closed my legs to save the model and managed to stab myself in the leg with the scalpel. Model is fine. Leg is sore

It’s in the post. One of the xtradecal ones. A/C number is XX787, 1Sqn out in RAF Belize.

Lets make a start PE the pit

Disaster, the super glue I always use has decided today to fog the canopy Not sure what to do with this now. Tempted to make a canopy cover.

Great work so far. Lightnings are fab. Only us Brits could attach wings and a seat to a rocket and make it work.

Looking good even if it’s fighting you.

Everything looks cool in a camo wrap, but this a/c is incorrectly dressed for parade. Will get cracking soon

Kit has been found in the stash, with some after market goodies, just waiting on the postman to deliver the “piece de resistance”

Stunning work Rich, well worth the effort you put it.

Blimey, John’s gone “tanks”. Good luck for your build. I will keep checking in, making sure you haven’t glued any wings on.

This was it before the gloss varnish Somehow managed to apply with a Matt varnish. Promptly changed to gloss, still waiting for it to dry.

Just a teasing place holder while I gather my evil plan

I still have a Hawk to finish in he Trainers GB, A Viking in the Lockheed GB, an A10 in the Sharkmouth GB, and then more starting soon. I thought I was in for a quiet year
