Wonderful gallery pics as usual Stix, and great to see it next to its big brother.

Wait a minute, now you got me confused! You anglo-saxon kind of guys always refer to aircrafts as being of feminine gender. Now Cookie talks about a 'big brother'???

Poor, confused Italian guy needs an explanation ...

Ciao

Well done Stix, thats a wonderful Spitfire to add to your growing collection. I like the comparison with the 1/48 Spit. Which mark are you going to do next? Cheers Greg

......that's a fair point. I have no idea. Perhaps Cookie should have said 'next to its big sister' ...........but that doesn't sound right somehow! Oh well.

Thank you Greg. I was originally planning to make Airfix's 1/48 Mk.XII for this GB but had too many other GBs on the go. I've got a couple of 1/48 Revell/Hasegawa Mk.IXs (courtesy of Stevej60) and an Airfix 1/72 Mk.22 in the stash. Not sure which I will do next. I am thinking that, at some point when I haven't got to many GB builds on the go, I might have a go at a dual Hurricane build similar to my dual Spitfire builds........time will tell.

Thank you all for taking the time to comment.

Kind regards,

Stix

This is a fantastic model, I like it a lot. Not only it's very realistic, but to me it conveys the appearance of what a "classic" ETO Mk.V looks like, really well done.

Been playing catch-up with various threads after missing a few weeks of forum action and have to say your little Mk. V is looking great Stix. Well done.
