DaveJL Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Hello all, Here is my recently completed Tamiya Spitfire MK.1 (the new tooling) in the markings of 19 Squadron during the summer of 1940. The build is part 1 of 8 of my RAF 'QRA through the years' project and the build thread can be seen here. The kit is OOB except for the decals and a paint mask which was used. An absolutely brilliant kit which was a joy to build. It's also my first 1/48 Spitfire (shame on me!) but despite this I'm happy with how it turned out. The base is from Coastal Kits and the patch is from my own collection. Thanks for looking. Dave 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve27752 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Very good, I would however change the squadron patch with a WW11 Kings Crown one instead of the modern Queens Crown one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

72modeler Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Mk 1? Check! Only 23 more to go! Seriously, you did a great job on your model.....hoping Tamiya does a 1/72 version of their new-tool in the forseeable future. Well done, sir! Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
