Kallisti 7,502 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Red crowbar - tsk tsk They only appear on restored Spits, but apart from that this is a neat effort, for a 3rd model its a very good sign of excellent things to come I'd say! Link to post Share on other sites

PlaStix 22,211 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Third model?!! Wow. That is a superb Spitfire. Excellent! Well done and welcome to BM. I look forward to more of your builds. Link to post Share on other sites

Spitfire31 2,433 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Welcome to BM! That's a really neat and proper Spitfire! Difficult to imagine that it's your third model ever… And it's good to see that your Spit apparently doesn't use guns with black powder, contrary to some other models you see with thick, black smudges behind the gun ports. ;-) Someone else mentioned the red crowbar, which would be the only fly in the ointment and easily corrected to green or just steel colour. Looking forward to seeing more from your workshop soon! Kind regards, Joachim Link to post Share on other sites

But who's to say it's not a model of a restored Spit ? Link to post Share on other sites
robvulcan 4,255 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 That's a lovely Spit , I really must finish mine off. I had to laugh at the codes though....(just the way my mind works ) Brilliant. Lovely paint job. Cheers Rob 1 Link to post Share on other sites

robvulcan 4,255 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 You are a bad man Rob - I hadn't noticed before!!! I have often seen codes that make me laugh... I am dyslexic so I have a visual mind and see things in a different way to most. When in the super market with the mrs we both laugh as we enter the freezer section and I spot the Basted Turkey...

Leonl 1,429 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Very nice, I particularly like the masking around the canopy, very tidy. Link to post Share on other sites
Col. 11,946 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 The only advice I can give is keep doing what you are doing as it obviously works Link to post Share on other sites
Yankar 49 Posted November 18, 2014 Author Share Posted November 18, 2014 I would like to thank you all for your warm welcome!!! I am glad you like my building and I am sure that with your valuable help I will improve my future buildings. As far as the crowbar is concerned I admit that I like more the red colored one. I knew that aluminum or cockpit interior would be the historically correct color but I decided to go with the red one. It wasn't an intention of mine to build a restored spit...

Buzby061 2,528 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Apart from the fingerprint on the 6th photo it looks spot on. There's a law in modelling that states you will only spot a fault when you've taken the pictures & posted them!! Pete 1 Link to post Share on other sites

There's a law in modelling that states you will only spot a fault when you've taken the pictures & posted them!! Pete Impressive!!! You are right!!! There is a fingertip on the 6th pic. I can tell you that even after I read your post I was staring to the picture for a minute to locate the that... Thanks for noting!!! Next time I have to be more carefull while I am doing the exhaust stains!!! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
