shortCummins Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Here’s my version of Tamiya’s 1:48 Spitfire MkVb tropical. The only “after-market” was a Montex mask set MM48024 used for the roundels and aircraft markings. I’ve painted her as one of George Beurling’s aircraft however the paint colours may or may not be accurate, but I’m quite pleased with the overall look. build log here… until next time as always, any suggestions, criticisms or comments will be gratefully received. rgds John(shortCummins) 33 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAT69 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 An excellent build. That tropical filter doesn't do a thing for the Spitfire, in terms of looks, though I fully understand its purpose and the genuine need for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
