Sturmovik Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 After finishing my Ta 183 in Argentinian colours, I decided to pull out my Spit F.22/24 and build it as an aircraft I saw in the Strike Witches anime. It'll be a Supermarine Spitfire M.22 coded DW°N, and painted in a what if camouflage of a darker brown, dark green, sky and a sky/red propeller nose cone. I'll be posting updates as soon as I can. The boxart: Sprue shots, with the fuselage test fitted. Wings glued with the flaps in the up position. Airfix indicates on step 9 to add piece 24, but after gluing it, said piece resulted in the wings having a gap with the fuselage, so I removed it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturmovik Posted July 10, 2019 Author Share Posted July 10, 2019 More progress with the Spit: I've built the cockpit and joined the fuselage halves together. Fuselage taped together. It both halves had a great fit. Fuselage and wings glued, the gaps were small, so I didn't fill them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturmovik Posted July 12, 2019 Author Share Posted July 12, 2019 Fuselage completed: NATO Brown (instead of Dark Earth) applied: Camouflage fully painted with the base of the spinner painted in red. More progress soon! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
