Revell 1/72 spitfire mk 1a 1979


Recommended Posts

Nice one.

Spitfires in 1/72 are so good to try out your skills as there a hundreds to choose from.

On the next one have a go at adding the cockpit framing (I use water-based acrylics and a VERY fine brush - and a steady hand - for this as it's easier to 'fettle' the frame to tidiness with a cocktail stick).

It makes such a difference.

Amen to the post-painting cocktail stick fettling. That is my saviour just about every kit I do
