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.

Crikey, for hairy stick that's a mighty fine finish.

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.
