Spitfire Mk lX 145 Sqdn 1943


Recommended Posts

Another Spitfire Mk lX in Desert Colours 145 Sqdn North Africa 1943. Had quite a few problems with this one, mainly trying to adapt the undercarriage to flight mode, the canopy not fitting well (big gap between the fuselage) and the decals breaking 😤 I think I should have taken a bit more time and care with it. I made my own stand from 3mm brass rod and a wooden plinth.

Great looking Spitfire and a very effective display!

 

I take it that the rear view mirror is an experimental version, made entirely of glass? 😉

 

Nice work!

 

Kind regards,

Thanks Joachim, yes it’s a new type of mirror......detects Messerschmitt 109s 😬🤣
