Here is my 1/32 Spitfire IXe of the Royal Danish Air Force. I used the Revell IXc kit and converted it to an IXe. I used Eduard zoom PE for the cockpit and added after market door and wheels. The decals is from Stoppel Decals, which unfortunately is out of production. I think I could have gone a little more heavy on the weathering. Enjoy the pics. /T- 12 replies

Here's my Revell Spitfire IXe/XVI (Hasegawa repop) converted using the Brigade Models fuselage and a few extra AM bits. It's a representation of the Boultbee Flight Academy's aircraft which I flew in 2014. The full trauma associated with its build is at the Aussie Modeller website. Not a great result but it fills a spot in the cabinet and looks the part if you don't look too close: It's supposed to look like this: I even made up a decal for the signatures on the front cockpit door (every WWII Spitfire pilot who's flown in the aircraft has autographed the door, as has HRH Prince Harry who flew it a couple of months before me). Unfortunately, it's barely visible and my blundering errors take attention from it anyway. I made it harder for myself by opening up the doors and canopies but you get that...

Here is a slightly different take on the AZModel's 1/72 spit. I got this one in a bag of parts and without major decals. Browsing through the net to find some different liveries for the Spit, I came across the Velvetta II operation spits on their ferry to Israel from Czechoslovakia via Yugoslavia. They landed on Podgorica airfield, and in order to do so, Yugoslav markings were painted on the spits. Spits were surplus Czech ones. The spits carried in addition to the slipper tank, a pair of Me-109 fuel tanks on wing fittings. So here it goes, a weathered spit with Me fuel tanks and different markings. The kit is the AZ one, built OOB, with added slipper tank, ME fuel tanks from ED Me-110 kit and decals from SKY-Decals sheet provided by a friend. Painted in Tamia acrylics (the new RAF range) with the ME fuel tanks painted in RLM-76. Weathered with pastels and oil washes (heavily). Thanks for looking.- 7 replies
