Redshift Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 So, the 2020 weirdness is not quite dead, so what better distraction from the end of the world than a wooden spitfire? Having already done a Mk1 a while back (that now looks hopelessly childish) I thought I'd fast-forward 10 years to the last mark to fly from the spitfires birthplace: a Mk24. Carved from my dwindling supply of beech and accented with whatever slivers of dark wood (or possibly mouse poo) I found at the bottom of the woodpile and finished with a very old tin of danish oil. Hope it looks vaguely recognisable, and is an acceptable deviation from the more usual plastic based excellence found on here. 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burncpt Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 That is fab. Nice change from plastic as well (how sustainable is plastic modelling these days anyway huh)? 😏 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
