Airfix Supermarine Spitfire mkVb 1:24

Post by ThunderLizard »

Looking for my first plane build. Is this a good kit. Seems a good price

Price is good yes, for a first aircraft build I think it would be a bit of a nightmare though as it's not the best fitting kit.

I'm only just starting getting back into the hobby after so many years away. After doing a couple of kits to what I would call mediocre standard I bought myself the airfix 1:48 Me-109 Kit number A05120 so I could go through the ISM guides on youtube as I built it.

Opening it up it seems to be about the right size, fit and complexity for a kit to start with.
