    Thanks Ant, I know. I’m stopping for a while now......I’ve spent to much time and money (and bribing SWMBO with Bottles of Gin!!) 🥴🤣

    My final Spitfire another Mk iX MH454 of 453 Sqn RAAF June 1944 piloted by F/O J. Boulton and painted in D Day invasion stripes. Not an exact model I know, but my representation of the aircraft from this period of the War and a tribute to all those brave men who flew this iconic plane👍😊

    Thanks Liam, my tip for you is to only put half the wheel onto the strut otherwise it won’t fit in the wheel well 👍😊

    Another one finished....... Revell 1/32 scale Spitfire Mark IIA, P7665 YT-L, of No. 65 Squadron RAF . It was shot down by Messerschmitt Bf 109s on 5 February 1941. Yes I know the rear view mirror is missing, I dropped it on the floor and I think the dog ate it!! 🥴😤

    Thanks Joachim, yes it’s a new type of mirror......detects Messerschmitt 109s 😬🤣

    Another Spitfire Mk lX in Desert Colours 145 Sqdn North Africa 1943. Had quite a few problems with this one, mainly trying to adapt the undercarriage to flight mode, the canopy not fitting well (big gap between the fuselage) and the decals breaking 😤 I think I should have taken a bit more time and care with it. I made my own stand from 3mm brass rod and a wooden plinth.

    My final build for a while (my wife wants her dining table back.....a bit unfair!!) Spitfire Mk iXc No 416 Squadron RCAF May 1944. Straight out of the box with no extras. I really enjoyed this one and it went together really well with very few problems, other than snapping the undercarriage strut whilst putting the decals on 😤 So had to use the superglue. Hope I’ve done a reasonable job 👍😊
