Here is my attempt at an AZ 1/72 Spitfire IIB. It is the first short run kit I've started, but the fourth I've finished (managed a few short run P-40's first for the Group Build). It represents the 303 Sqn aircraft of FO Miroslaw Feric (P8385, RF-A) in the summer of 1941, although four different pilots, including Feric, made claims while flying it according to Wojtek Matusiak's 303 Squadron history. The prop and spinner come from the Airfix Mk I/IIA kit, and the rear view mirror and antenna mast were scratched from plasticard. The build thread is here. My cheap camera and lack of photography experience led me to try a hodgepodge of backgrounds, so please bear with me. The reference photos showed a plane that looked like it had been across the Channel a few times, and I tried to capture that weathered look. Here it is next to a 303 Sqn Mk IIA from the Airfix kit. I can say that I've started a Kosciuszko 'collection' now that there are two of them. Thank for looking, any and all Spitfire advice is welcome.
