Silver Fox Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Three firsts for me on this one: First Eduard Spitfire that everyone tells me is the one to get First MK VIII I have ever built in any scale First with extended wings that so change the classic shape. VIII 4 by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/15218468 Well, I found it enjoyable to build though a bit fiddly in places and little things like having to put the exhaust stubs on before painting to be disappointing but yes it is the one to buy and I have plans for a couple more. url=https://flic.kr/p/2jCFMRe][/url]VIII 3 by [url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/152184681 I also have a bag of spares for future Spitfire builds, the kit is straight OOTB all the etch and maskings are part of the package. The decals were a joy to use, thin and tough.

SAT69 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Very nice build. As others have suggested, the elongated wings seem to take away from the classic Spitfire elegance. But then, personal opinion here, so do the clipped wings of some of the Spitfire marks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
