PhantomBigStu Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 (edited) One I can start in the short term, got a spare airfix kit, a vb conversion used on a previous build that can be retired and reclaimed plus decals, clip tips and trop filter in the stash.

PhantomBigStu Posted November 19, 2020 Author Share Posted November 19, 2020 Forgotten about this, found it while tidying up and having a pause whilst various things dried in other builds I assembled it, hacking off the bits to fit the new parts 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomBigStu Posted May 21, 2021 Author Share Posted May 21, 2021 (edited) Well this never made it, just couldn't sort the resin bits out, but its back on in a different form with a fresh kit, this case the new tool Revell, purchased for the decals from JADLAM for £6.95 last Spring and, the SAAF decals were purchased in the Autumn of 2019 for a previous build.

Kind regards, Stix Now plural, fancied doing a mkVa alongside this, know meant to start separate thread but given they are the same type ok to make this a double?

PhantomBigStu Posted August 21, 2021 Author Share Posted August 21, 2021 Hoped to start a mass varnishing session last night but couple of them needed some touch ups so just did the b-58, which I’ll be able to finish for the gallery tommorow. But the rest are in progress, stb wings will get a couple of coats later on with the undersides to be done tommorow and finish these one by one during the week. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravnos Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 These are looking great, really need to build a spit or two, haven't built any since I was a kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomBigStu Posted August 25, 2021 Author Share Posted August 25, 2021 Admitting to not building a spitfire on a British modelling forum? Almost a bannable offence..... Anyway in the gallery now and as a bonus here is some builds that are being sent to the boneyard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlaStix Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Hi Stu. Very well done again! They look great in the Gallery! Thank you, once again, for building them in this GB. Kind regards, Stix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
