Global Scale Modeller

I almost forgot!
This kit was built for my son's (Joe) bessie Tom. This weekend is his 13th birthday, and we're taking it round later today. We'll have see if he likes it or thinks I'm a bit weird, he likes his WWII, loves planes and the Spit is his favourite....I hope he like it.

I hope you like it too...

Damn fine Spit, Tim. Hope Joe's mate likes it. Nice to see a Spitfire done in a different scheme.

All the best mate.

That's one good looking Spitfire, I'm sure Joe's mate will love it

Cheers Will, I hope so, my misses thinks I'm weird for doing it
Tbh it's not my best work Will, just lately I'm having trouble finishing kits I seem to get fed up half way through

Cracking Spit you've got there Tim

Lovely Spit Tim, nice to see some different markings.

I'm having the same problem. I take my time over the initial build but by the time I'm ready to get some primer on I'm wanting to get it done and out of the way so finish up rushing it. The worst bit for me is doing a decent kit with good decals, by the time you get round to putting the decals on and you're faced with a stencil sheet with 100-200 stencils on it I could scream.

That's a very nice spitfire you've build.

Thanx Nige
Looking back at it, it looks hell of a dark I'm sure it was me mucking about with oils. I certainly need more experience on that front

Yeah here's me most of the time. I'm a confidence modeller Avgas (I say modeller but....) once I get a knock it all seems to go wrong
I hate stencils..
