This is my second kit finished in 2016 and fourth (of course not last) Spitfire from Eduards kit - Mk.VIII in 457 sqn RAAF marking. I've made it only from box (because box constains metal barrels and resin rotol, exhausts and wheels ).
When my Mrs.VIII .... Mk.VIII was almost finished I found a photo of ZP Z. Of course too late for painting correct code letters in Sky.

Because it had been painted in Desert Scheme and later gets Foliage Green on Middle Stone I try to show an effect of thin coat of green paint.
Is it possible that two Defiants with code EW K were in 307 sqn PAF (not RAF!)? First photo - chessboard below first window of canopy and second photo - chessboard below second window.

Thanks a lot. I have bought Ronin Graphics decals set for RAAF's F/A-18F. Now I'm looking for information about armament of F/A-18F during Operation OKRA in Middle East.
Just finished well known eduard's Spitfire with resin wheels, exhaust and rotol.
