I was fortunate in receiving some help from Edgar when I built my Spitfire for last year's Battle of Britain GB.
As a tribute to his generosity, I would like to dedicate my build of a No. 19 Squadron Spitfire from August 1938 to him. Early Spitfires from No. 19 Squadron are well documented and the model will be a great companion to my No. 111 Squadron Hurricane when I get finally back onto it.
Even though in a stock standard colour scheme, the upper wing yellow roundels do give it a unique look.
I haven't made up my mind to do K9797 with a red 19
Or K9794 with a yellow 19
Or K9795 with a white 19...
I will build again the new tool Airfix 1/48 Spitfire Mk.I. Unfortunately the time frame for this GB is too short for me to finish this build as I like to use some additional accessories and incorporate some additional detail like RIVETS - and participating currently in another 4 GBs with 13 models doesn't help.
So I will take my time for this build and keep updating the build progress from time to time.
I am looking forward in getting started.
Cheers, Peter
