Roman Schilhart Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 (edited) Hello and welcome to 2016! My last build from 2015, the first to be presented in the new year. Sword 1/72 Spitfire XVIe with photo etch from Brengun, Vacu canopy from Squadron and Decals from Xtradecals. Represents SM309/AU-H, “Panama Bound” of 421(Royal Canadian Air Force) Squadron in 1945. Flown by Flt.Lt. Richard “Hap” Beal. Painted with acrylics from Gunze/Mr.Hobby. Main Inspiration for this build was the model by Mr. Jekl, as seen on Britmodeller: http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234949348-supermarine-spitfire-mkxvi-172-sword/ Pictures by Wolfgang Rabel of IGM Cars & Bikes. Thanks for your interest, have a good start into the new year! Cheers from Vienna Roman Edited January 3, 2016 by Roman Schilhart 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitfire31 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 An admirable Spitfire from all aspects. She looks just 'right'! The crowbar should be steel or bronze green, though… ;-) Exceptional modelling! Kind regards, J oachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smit11 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Nice little Spit with great detail for a 1/72, I find it hard to get the seat belts fitted in a 1/48!! Good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
