Col. Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 That looks ready for flight. Very nice work. Did you add any additional detail or is she made as the kit provides? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Navy Bird Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 That looks ready for flight. Very nice work. Did you add any additional detail or is she made as the kit provides? Having a look at the AZ Spitfire Mk.IX here in my lap, I can make a few comments. First, the control surfaces are not moulded separate, so it looks like the elevators were repositioned. And I don't see any trace at all of all those rivets on mine - but maybe I'm just too old to see them! (I'm talking about the very small rivets, not the ones on the wing fairing or the fasteners on the cowling.) Excellent job, Mr. CzechKits.com! The AZ Mk.IX is really a very nice kit. I bought the Joy Pack, very inexpensive way to get three high quality models. Cheers, Bill PS. There's no rivets on mine. Really. I'm not that old! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Learstang Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Brilliant Spitfire! It looks great in the Desert scheme. Bill, nice to hear that the Mk.IX is a good kit - I'm thinking about getting the Joy Pack myself. I'm on a bit of Spitfire tear recently (Airfix PR.19 and F.22, Special Hobby Seafire FR.47, and Legato/AZ Models Seafire FR.46 all bought within the last three weeks or so - oh, and I just ordered a Special Hobby PR.X today).

Spitfire31 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Extremely neat Spitfire. Hard to believe it's 1:72nd and good to see that AZ seems to be rising like a Phoenix out of the ashes of sub par kits. I do appreciate the slightly drooped elevators – so typical of a parked Spit! To my taste, the panel lines look a bit too emphasised, especially on the aft fuselage and the leading edges of the stabs. But then, it might be an effect of image contrast… Excellent modelling!

modelglue Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Really nice work! I'm on a bit of Spitfire tear recently... Me too! I guess once you go spitfire... I had never modelled one in 25+ years of building, and now suddenly I've got about 7 kits lined up. Looks like 3 more will be added thanks to the mention of the joy kit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveCromie Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Fantastic looking Spitfire , the AZ Joy Pack is a brilliant product that even my fists of ham managed not to spoil! Now, if only they would sell the rest of their range in this way......... DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
