llking Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 This is my daughters first build. 1/32 Revell Spitfire MK I/II. She added a resin seat and painted it with Tamiya paints. She's not to happy with it because she knocked off the mirror. She forgot to put the canopy on when she took the pics 44
Paul Alan Bardell Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 As has been said above, thats good work. Bring on kit no 2!! well done her!
keefr22 Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 Good grief, I'd be happy with that, mirror or no mirror! The young lady did really good! Keith
Mike Mcellaney Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 Great work, you will soon be showing your Dad how to build, mind you that's not a hard thing to do now is it
polo1112 Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 Good job, but how old is your daughter? She walks in the steps of her Dad. That's fine !!!
llking Posted August 1, 2016 Author Posted August 1, 2016 Good job, but how old is your daughter? She walks in the steps of her Dad. That's fine !!! She just turned 15 last month
SasaU. Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 Are you sure it's the first kit ??? Very nice, great job ! Congrats...
TheBaron Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 A talented piece of work. Hope this inspires her to do more! Bravo!
vh-bob Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 Great to see the next generation having an interest let alone the skill shown here. Well done , she renews your faith in the future. Trev.
Thom216 Posted August 2, 2016 Posted August 2, 2016 Tell her great job from all of us! It looks fantastic. And don't mind the little things. It's the joy of the build that important!
Turbofan Posted August 2, 2016 Posted August 2, 2016 What a coincidence! My daughter has just finished her first build and it was a Spitfire too! Only it's 1/72. Don't tell her I said this but yours is far better! Awesome job! Then again she's only just turned 11. Will be posting in RFI later. Cheers, Ian
Meatbox8 Posted August 2, 2016 Posted August 2, 2016 First build!!? My jaw just hit the deck. Fantastic work. Forty odd years, off and on, I've been building kits and I would be dead chuffed if I managed to achieve this level. Great subtle weathering and wear and tear really bring this to life.
cngaero Posted August 2, 2016 Posted August 2, 2016 Your daughter has made a smashing job of it. If mine turned out to be half as good, I'd be over the moon. If she's got the bug, watch your stash!!!! 1
