johnny akes Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Hi Folks Being 'The Last' I thought this deserved something a little different, so with the help of an Airfix 1/24 motor and stand... And finally, a couple of shots alongside the rest of my 1/48 Spitfire collection... Regards JA 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natter Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 I rather like that, a little bit different. Lovely paint finish too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trubbie Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 This has come out very well indeed Johnny. Looks authentic and very close to some of the photos I've seen of XIXs in the air. Well done. Trubbie. PS Your spitfire collection is admirable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F-32 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Looks brilliant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Wow. That looks amazing. However, I think the low flying model should have been MH434 (that I've also seen in your collection) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbuna Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Looks really cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMChladek Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 (edited) Wow. That looks amazing. However, I think the low flying model should have been MH434 (that I've also seen in your collection) But to do that, the stand's support rod would have to be cut down by one half to one quarter of its height. Superb work in any event! Edited April 22, 2013 by JMChladek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonl Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I love Spitfires, stunning example and a nice collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theanorak73 Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 very nice selection of spitfires, in fact your photos have just inspired me to order two more kits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmcclure Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Great work and I firmly believe that the Spitfire is best shown in a flying attitude. It seems far more at home in the model stratosphere! Super idea for the motor too - miffed that I saw your work the evening after I zipped up the fuse on mine! Cheers, Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
