llking 1,412 Posted August 1, 2016 Share 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 Link to post Share on other sites

Turbofan 2,535 Posted August 2, 2016 Share 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 Link to post Share on other sites

Meatbox8 2,817 Posted August 2, 2016 Share 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 1,647 Posted August 2, 2016 Share 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 Link to post Share on other sites
