  1. Hi, Eduard decals were a dream, once the decals have got a couple of varnish coats over them, I came in with a small bit of enamel thinner on a q-tip and removed the carrier film. Pete.
  2. Hi Guy's, It has been a while since my last post, in between building a new house, dogs getting kennel cough and life in general, I have managed to complete an Eduard 1/48 Bf 109G-6 Early Version ProfiPACK. Apart from the fiddly etch metal, the kit goes together well. Also it is the first time I used Vallejo paints. I loved their Model Air paints (no thinning straight in the airbrush cup) and their Polyurethane varnishes produce results with no frosting! This was a game changer for me! Anyway I hope you enjoy!
  3. Hi Jeff, Thanks for that. Just basically Tamiya acrylics (XF RAF Range), just for the simple fact you do not have to lay down a primer. protected by Mr Colour UV cut clear. Pete.

  5. Hi, I am only new here. This is the first model I have ever built in 30 years. I had made a few mistakes (really struggled with the top engine cowling) that I was not happy with, but decided to press on and complete the build. I plan to build another Spitfire in RAAF markings with all the lessons learnt in the future. The second last image is preparing for transportation, using my vertigo aircraft gig (which I thought was a good idea) to my local hobby store, with the last image of the Eduard Spitfire on display in the local hobby store where it will remain. Also first time ever that I have attempted a diorama base. Aftermarket: -Eduard Look IP -Brassin Spitfire Mk.IX Drop Tank -Red Roo Decals -Quickboost Cockpit Door -Extra lead wire and goodies added to cockpit Hope you like it. Pete.
