Took me a good while to finish this as i bought a house , moved there and have spent a lot of time working on it , but now im almost out of money so :banana: more time for this :thumb2:
Brush painted with Model Color and Humbrol Enamel , mattcoat was airbrushed though.

Parked beside an F.Mk 22 shows how much was altered in the never ending quest of flying higher , further and faster.

Have moved on to airbrushing and my current project is Airfix 1/48 Spitfire PR.Mk XIX which of course will be in Swedish markings , cockpit completed on that one right now so time to join the fuselage . Next in line is Eduard 1/48 Bf-109 E-4 profipack , after that i guess a yet unpurchased Tamiya kit , i think i go for a bare metal Mustang.

Thx m8s , the late Spit beside it is a Mk.22 , kind of a first and last , the very last Spit Mk.24 only differs in an additional fueltank in the rear fuselage and some had shorter gun barrels :)

Really nice work. Love the subtle weathering and finish.

Looks nice next to its 'big brother' too.
Its been tried and tested, it works! So don't blame the system if you're no good. :doh:
