Fozzy Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 (edited) Hi every one Its taken a long time but I have finally finished this project that I started over 3 years ago when I was living in UK!!Having more time to make models here in Bulgaria I was able to get more done quicker else it would have gone on and on for decades I expect! The idea of this project when I started was to show how everything goes together and the construction of a Spitfire on the inside!....its been a bumpy road at times with the whole thing nearly ending up in the bin!.........but I think or I hope I have achieved this with this model. There are a lot of photos because there is a lot of detail to show....so apologies for that! I have put the photos into sections as you will see.......................I hope you enjoy them........ 1.
