Spitfire Mk. IXc Tamiya 1:32


Recommended Posts

You started to learn Polish? :cheers: .

No, Duncan I dont mean "Nit licznika". I am really grateful for greatgonzo and Greg advices. Model looking better now.

You're right it looks awesome and would be a shame to have it spoiled by a detail that could be easily corrected. The great thing about this forum is that advice is easy to come by if required.

I was just having fun with you over your "phobia :frantic: " of rivet counters.

I have "phobia" only about the rivet counters with mentality of typical Polish BMW owner B) .

You must live in Poland to fully understand it.

I'm extremely impressed with every part of this build, especially the cockpit, but feel the engine was seriously neglected. I guess if the plane is intended to be displayed 'buttoned up' it doesn't matter though.

What colours you suggest?

Dark Grey with few drops of black like guns smoke, greyish black and brown like mud and black like engines oil. Of course there are only my sugestions.

Really impresive! .... What method have you used for those nice oil stains? (if not a secret of course)

No secret Ludek... I am using Abteilung oil paints mixed with AK white spirit applied with 000 Italeri paint brush.

Alhough one of my friend still believe in some kind of black magic :D .

Now who could that be? :hmmm: Ludek, what he doesn't show in the pictures is his wizard's hat!
